About 280b

280b is a detached house in Wolverhampton (WV4 4AD). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (September 2019) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve.

Today's modelled estimate of £662,000 is 73.3% below the 2016 sale of £2,474,999, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£2,090/sq ft) was about 1029% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 110 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Last sold in February 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
