About 5 Benson Close

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

5 Benson Close is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV6 7LU). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
