149a, Penn Road, Wolverhampton, WV3 0ED
About 149a
149a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV3 0ED). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on lpg. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since May 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 79 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 is 24.7% above the 2009 sale price.
