Overview

About Garden Cottage

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

Garden Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Crown East, Worcester, Worcester (WR2 5TR). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record.

Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. Across 2008–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 13% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £525,000 is 28.4% above the 2013 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
