About 2a

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

2a is a three-bedroom detached house in Walsall (WS5 3JW). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 788 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 23 years, with the last transfer in July 2003. Today's modelled estimate of £340,000 sits 88.9% above the 2003 sale of £180,000. At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (133 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
