Overview

About 7 Ambergate Close

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

7 Ambergate Close is a semi-detached house in Walsall (WS3 3RH). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 2004–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 132.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £225,000 sits 61.3% above the 2005 sale of £139,500. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
