Overview

About The Old Vicarage

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

The Old Vicarage is a detached house in Birley, Hereford, Hereford (HR4 8ET). It has a recorded floor area of 194 m² (around 2088 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a G (score 18), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 194 m² it's 15.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (169 m² median across 10 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
