About 5 Lower Chestnut Street
5 Lower Chestnut Street is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Worcester (WR1 1PB). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a loft.
It hasn't traded since May 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 100 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £206,000 sits 490.3% above the 1996 sale of £34,900. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£32/sq ft) was about 78.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
