The Lunt
The Lunt sits within a part of the Black Country that stands out for affordability. Terraces come in from around £158,000 and flats from £70,700 in areas like Princes End and Willenhall South, while detached homes in Ettingshall North and Bilston North average £265,000 to £290,000. Living costs run consistently below the UK average across the board, covering groceries, transport and council tax, which makes this a practical option for buyers watching their budgets. Crime is a genuine bright spot too, with every neighbourhood reporting steady year-on-year falls, and several now sitting below the national average.
Families are particularly well served here. Good and Outstanding-rated primary schools turn up in nearly every neighbourhood, with standouts including an Outstanding primary in Darlaston South and Moseley Park secondary, rated Outstanding, serving both Bilston neighbourhoods. Healthcare provision is strong throughout, with GP surgeries, dentists and pharmacies well distributed, plus hospitals accessible from Princes End, Willenhall South and Ettingshall South & Spring Vale. Green space is abundant, with Coseley and Princes End each offering around 9 to 10 parks, and local amenities like pubs, convenience stores and shops cover everyday needs comfortably, even if bigger shopping trips mean heading further afield.
Transport is where the area varies most. Bilston North and Bilston South benefit from Midland Metro tram stops right on the doorstep, giving direct links to Wolverhampton and Birmingham, while Coseley has its own railway station. Elsewhere, public transport is thinner on the ground, particularly in Princes End and Willenhall South, though strong road connections to the M5, M6, A454 and A462 mean driving is straightforward throughout. Air quality is consistently good to excellent across the area, and with roughly 18% of residents in some neighbourhoods now working from home, The Lunt offers a flexible, well-connected base whether you're commuting into the city or working locally.
