About 1 Wilkes Row
1 Wilkes Row is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Orcop, Hereford, Hereford (HR2 8EP). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 78 m² it's 20.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (98 m² median across 9 EPCs). Across 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £258,000 is 47.5% above the 2009 sale price.
