About 18 Brookhouse Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Brookhouse Road is a detached house in Walsall (WS5 3AD). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 791 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 24), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (136 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 68.6% above the 2009 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£278/sq ft) was about 44.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 18 Brookhouse Road is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WS5 3AD. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 18 Brookhouse Road. 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 18 Brookhouse Road was lodged in May 2009 at band F and expired in May 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 18 Brookhouse Road. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WS5 3AD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 18 Brookhouse Road is in council tax band E. 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.
