Overview

About 12 Byfield Rise

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

12 Byfield Rise is a mid-terrace house in Worcester (WR5 1BA). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in December 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 91).

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 72 m² the property is well over the postcode median (54 m² across 89 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £220,000 sits 63% above the 2009 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 29.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
