About 2 Kenswick Mill Barn
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Kenswick Mill Barn is a four-bedroom detached house in Lower Broadheath, Worcester, Worcester (WR2 6QX). It has a recorded floor area of 189 m² (around 2034 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 68), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 189 m² the property is well over the postcode median (129 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £718,000 sits 234% above the 1999 sale of £215,000.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Kenswick Mill Barn is modelled from its 189 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WR2 6QX. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 2 Kenswick Mill Barn. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Kenswick Mill Barn was lodged in April 2015 at band F and expired in April 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.
