18 Astbury Close, Walsall, WS3 3YB

18 Astbury Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Walsall (WS3 3YB). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. Other recorded features include a conservatory. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (June 2017) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in October 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 88 m² the property is well over the postcode median (55 m² across 39 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £335,000 sits 77.2% above the 2007 sale of £189,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 32.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
