Overview

About 1 Farrington Road

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

1 Farrington Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Wolverhampton (WV4 6QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.

Today's modelled estimate of £334,000 sits 85.6% above the 2012 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£172/sq ft) was about 17.4% below the postcode norm. At 97 m² it's 16.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 20 EPCs). Last sold in November 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
