Overview

About 27 The Avenue

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

27 The Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Castlecroft, Wolverhampton, Wolverhampton (WV3 8LS). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 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 £253,000 sits 67% above the 2008 sale of £151,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£207/sq ft) was about 51.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 68 m² it's 23.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 16 EPCs).
