About 17 Shrubbery Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Shrubbery Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Worcester (WR1 1QR). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in November 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Across 2013–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £264,000 is 12.3% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£280/sq ft) was about 55.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 78 m² it's 19.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (97 m² median across 31 EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2021. Last sale on file: £234,999 in April 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 17 Shrubbery Road is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WR1 1QR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 17 Shrubbery Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 17 Shrubbery Road was lodged in September 2013 at band D and expired in September 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 Shrubbery Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WR1 1QR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 17 Shrubbery Road is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
