Overview

About 1 Riches House

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

1 Riches House is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV6 0DY). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 58 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in 1 Riches House, where floor areas span 41–58 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (61 versus a best of 72). The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 is 17.9% below the 2007 sale of £140,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. Held since January 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
