Overview

About 1 Princes Avenue

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Princes Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Walsall (WS1 2PH). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2014. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 162 m² the property is well over the postcode median (114 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 12 years since the last transfer (October 2014). Today's modelled estimate of £393,000 is 39.1% above the 2014 sale price.
