Overview

About 17 Jacomb Drive

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

17 Jacomb Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Lower Broadheath, Worcester, Worcester (WR2 6SG). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), 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.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £197,000 sits 119% above the 2007 sale of £89,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£121/sq ft) was about 36.3% below the postcode norm.
