Overview

About 238a

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

238a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Worcester (WR2 4BE). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 928 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good. The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2008 — that's 18 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. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £286,000 sits 67.3% above the 2008 sale of £171,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
