Overview

About 38 Carlton Avenue

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

38 Carlton Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wolverhampton (WV11 1DE). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since May 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £200,000 sits 412.8% above the 1997 sale of £39,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£44/sq ft) was about 66.2% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
