About 5 Park Road West
5 Park Road West is a detached house in Wolverhampton (WV1 4PS). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 104 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £247,000 is 26.7% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 24.7% below the postcode norm.
