Overview

About 2 Portland Walk

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

2 Portland Walk is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Worcester (WR1 2NR). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in October 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 sits 286.7% above the 1999 sale of £59,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£76/sq ft) was about 54.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2024. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 73 m² it's 26.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (99 m² median across 19 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs).
