Overview

About 16 Riches House

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

16 Riches House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wolverhampton (WV6 0DY). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2023) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity. At 59 m² this is the 13th smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–72 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 21 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 is 18.5% below the 2006 sale of £135,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. Held since November 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
