About 131 Church Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
131 Church Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Bradmore, Wolverhampton, Wolverhampton (WV3 7EN). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in December 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 sits 57.1% above the 2007 sale of £280,000.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 131 Church Road is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WV3 7EN. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 131 Church Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 131 Church Road was lodged in May 2026 at band C and is valid until May 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 131 Church Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 35 schools and 6 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WV3 7EN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 131 Church Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
