Overview

About 19 Orchard Close

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

19 Orchard Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rushwick, Worcester, Worcester (WR2 5TH). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 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. Today's modelled estimate of £262,000 is 37.9% above the 2008 sale price.
