About Wilderness
Wilderness is a two-bedroom detached house in Walsall (WS1 3BQ). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2016. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since February 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 sits 76% above the 2005 sale of £249,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£252/sq ft) was about 23.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 92 m² it sits well below the postcode median (165 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
