About 1 Genge Avenue

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

1 Genge Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wolverhampton (WV4 6SL). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2016.
