Overview

About 55 Edward Street

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

55 Edward Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Parkfields, Wolverhampton, Wolverhampton (WV4 6HE). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in April 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -4.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £152,000 sits 117.1% above the 2009 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£81/sq ft) was about 18.3% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
