About 12 Blackthorne Road
12 Blackthorne Road is a semi-detached house in Walsall (WS5 4NF). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating 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 July 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. Today's modelled estimate of £222,000 sits 124.2% above the 2009 sale of £99,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£115/sq ft) was about 22.3% below the postcode norm.
