Overview

About 5 Abbots Way

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

5 Abbots Way is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV3 9LR). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2002, a hold of 24 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £258,000 sits 141.1% above the 2002 sale of £107,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 34.1% below the postcode norm.
