Overview

About Orchard Bungalow

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

Orchard Bungalow is a detached house in Almeley, Hereford, Hereford (HR3 6LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a G (score 14), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (August 2010); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £369,000 sits 99.5% above the 2010 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 36.4% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
