Overview

About 17 Athlone Road

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

17 Athlone Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Walsall (WS5 3QU). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1455 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 135 m² it sits well below the postcode median (219 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.
