Overview

About 1 Helens Court

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

1 Helens Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hednesford, Cannock, Cannock (WS12 1DF). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. At 45 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (45–60 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (December 2024) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2020); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£258/sq ft) was about 64.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it's 19.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (56 m² median across 3 EPCs).
