About 408 Sutton Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
408 Sutton Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Walsall (WS5 3BA). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since September 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £397,000 sits 93.7% above the 2014 sale of £205,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£148/sq ft) was about 18.3% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).

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 408 Sutton Road is modelled from its 129 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WS5 3BA. 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 408 Sutton 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 408 Sutton Road was lodged in August 2014 at band E and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 408 Sutton 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 24 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WS5 3BA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 408 Sutton Road 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.
