Overview

About 2 The Orchard

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

2 The Orchard is a four-bedroom detached house in Powick, Worcester, Worcester (WR2 4SE). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 152 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 33 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Last sold in January 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Today's modelled estimate of £423,000 is 33.2% above the 2014 sale price.
