Overview

About 98 Blackpole Road

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

98 Blackpole Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Worcester (WR4 9ST). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1143 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2008) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from September 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in March 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 106 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £227,000 sits 68.2% above the 2009 sale of £134,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£118/sq ft) was about 18.9% below the postcode norm.
