About 1 Downham Wood

1 Downham Wood is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Walsall (WS5 3BY). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
