Overview

About 1 Castlecroft Gardens

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

1 Castlecroft Gardens is a three-bedroom detached house in Wolverhampton (WV3 8LN). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1515 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 45). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £493,000 sits 76.1% above the 2017 sale of £280,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£185/sq ft) was about 31% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Last sold in March 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused.
