Overview

About 18 Sansome Walk

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

18 Sansome Walk is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Worcester (WR1 1LN). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (October 2024) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 113 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £239,000 is 38.2% above the 2007 sale price.
