Overview

About 16 Ferndale Road

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

16 Ferndale Road is a detached house in Essington, Wolverhampton, Wolverhampton (WV11 2JG). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in July 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 163 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £392,000 sits 80.6% above the 2009 sale of £217,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£124/sq ft) was about 44.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
