About 3 New Street
3 New Street is a three-bedroom detached house in Merry Hill, Wolverhampton, Wolverhampton (WV3 7NW). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 96 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 1995–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £286,000 sits 50.5% above the 2015 sale of £190,000. 11 years since the last transfer (August 2015). Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
