Overview

About 17 Riches House

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

17 Riches House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace 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. Tenure is freehold. 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, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (79 versus a worst of 39). The latest certificate (December 2018) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 is 22.5% below the 2006 sale of £136,842, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. Held since May 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
