Overview

About 16 Portland Walk

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

16 Portland Walk is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Worcester (WR1 2NR). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
