Overview

About 144a

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

144a is an end-of-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV3 7BG). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2017) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. At 56 m² this is the 4th smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–175 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 25 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 is 65.7% below the 2026 sale of £350,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£581/sq ft) was about 271% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It changed hands recently, sold February 2026 for £350,000. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (97 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
