Overview

About 179 Harden Road

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

179 Harden Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Walsall (WS3 1BT). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.

Last sale on file: £165,000 in February 2021. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 is 29.7% above the 2021 sale price.
