Overview

About 36 Castlecroft Gardens

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

36 Castlecroft Gardens is a three-bedroom detached house in Wolverhampton (WV3 8LN). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £520,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. 5 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 36 Castlecroft Gardens is modelled from its 133 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WV3 8LN. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 36 Castlecroft Gardens. 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 36 Castlecroft Gardens was lodged in August 2015 at band F and expired in August 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to 36 Castlecroft Gardens. 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 32 schools and 8 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WV3 8LN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
36 Castlecroft Gardens is in council tax band G. 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.
