About 27 The Avenue
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.
