About 31 Brookhouse Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
31 Brookhouse Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Walsall (WS5 3AE). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 98 m² it's 21.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (125 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 2016–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 is 31.3% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£318/sq ft) was about 39.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

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 31 Brookhouse Road is modelled from its 98 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WS5 3AE. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 31 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 31 Brookhouse Road was lodged in October 2015 at band E and expired in October 2025, 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 31 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 3AE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 31 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.
