Overview

About 16 Birchfield Avenue

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

16 Birchfield Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in Wolverhampton (WV6 8TG). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 109 m² it sits well below the postcode median (158 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sale on file: £370,000 in January 2021. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £435,000 is 17.6% above the 2021 sale price.
