Overview

About 16 Farm Road

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

16 Farm Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Wolverhampton (WV3 8EW). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1647 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average 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.

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 153 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £442,000 sits 61.9% above the 2007 sale of £273,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 24.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
