About 3 Poplar Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Poplar Court is a four-bedroom detached house in Bloxwich, Walsall, Walsall (WS3 3SS). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 136 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On the market in April 2018 and unlisted since — roughly 8 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2003–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £344,000 is 49.9% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£157/sq ft) was about 19.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Poplar Court is modelled from its 136 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WS3 3SS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 3 Poplar Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Poplar Court was lodged in July 2015 at band D and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Poplar Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WS3 3SS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Poplar Court is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
