493 Sutton Road, Walsall, WS5 3AX
About 493 Sutton Road
493 Sutton Road is a detached house in Walsall (WS5 3AX). It has a recorded floor area of 192 m² (around 2067 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in May 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since February 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 192 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £663,000 is 29% above the 2009 sale price.
