Overview

About 1 Finchfield Lane

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

1 Finchfield Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wolverhampton (WV3 8EE). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 103.8% above the 2007 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 23.3% below the postcode norm. At 124 m² it's 27.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (97 m² median across 16 EPCs).
