About 5 Pennhouse Avenue
5 Pennhouse Avenue is a semi-detached house in Wolverhampton (WV4 4BG). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £274,000 is 36.3% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£168/sq ft) was about 52.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2010.
