Overview

About 5b

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

5b is a mid-terrace house in Worcester (WR2 5AE). It has a recorded floor area of 261 m² (around 2809 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in January 2016 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since April 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. At 261 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £546,000 is 12.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£173/sq ft) was about 59.2% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.
