About 5 Alvaston Close

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

5 Alvaston Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Walsall (WS3 3RY). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2024) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump.
