Overview

About 278 Walsall Road

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

278 Walsall Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Great Wyrley, Walsall, Walsall (WS6 6DN). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1421 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 40 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2003–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £314,000 is 49.5% above the 2005 sale price.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 278 Walsall Road is modelled from its 132 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WS6 6DN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 278 Walsall 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 278 Walsall Road was lodged in June 2013 at band E and expired in June 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 278 Walsall 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WS6 6DN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
278 Walsall 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.
