Get startedMartyr Worthy Place is a detached house in Martyr Worthy, Winchester, Winchester (SO21 1AW). It has a recorded floor area of 886 m² (around 9537 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (November 2023) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good.
It hasn't traded since November 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 886 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £4,053,000 sits 138.4% above the 2010 sale of £1,700,000. 50 planning records sit against the property, 36 approved, 7 refused. Past consents include an extension and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
Martyr Worthy Place's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
A recent planning application at Martyr Worthy Place was refused — worth checking the council file.
Removal of broken, unusable and unsafe open register cast-iron hob grate in living room to a more efficient, safer and environmentally-friendly stove by Hetas-registered Heron Property Services. The current grate dates from the Victorian era with "T. Elsley" and " No 13" inscribed in to the back of the fire plate (please see "Lalonde Existing" Figs 4-6 for photographic evidence). The fireplace is not Georgian. Thomas Elsley was a Victorian fire place manufacturer. A twin flue 904 chimney liner will be fitted by Hetas-certifed Heron Property Servicves, but there would be no visual change to the appearance of the property. In its place, a Clock Blithfield 5 5kW stove. This has an EnergyRating of A+ and an efficiency rating of 84.3%. The marble mantelpiece would be retained. The open-fire hob grate would be cut out but retained at the property. Pre-app advice was sought and all conditions have been met. The fireplace has been successfully dated, the chimney has been swept and detailed specifications have been submitted (in conjunction with this application).
