Overview

About Birchwood House

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

Birchwood House is a detached house in Hoar Cross, Burton-On-Trent, Burton On Trent (DE13 8RA). It has a recorded floor area of 694 m² (around 7470 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a C (score 73). Earlier certificates rated it B (July 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £1,718,000 is 24.5% below the 2017 sale of £2,275,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£305/sq ft) was about 49.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 694 m² the property is well over the postcode median (142 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs). 19 planning records sit against the property, 17 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include partial demolition, an extension and solar panel installation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 9 years since the last transfer (January 2017).
