Overview

About 153 Penn Road

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

153 Penn Road is a mid-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV3 0ED). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 53 m² this is the 13th smallest of 28 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 26–103 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs).
