45 Christine Avenue, Rushwick, Worcester, WR2 5SW

45 Christine Avenue is a semi-detached house in Rushwick, Worcester, Worcester (WR2 5SW). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 82.3% above the 2009 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 24.1% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
