About Birds House

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

Birds House is a three-bedroom detached house in Whittington, Worcester, Worcester (WR5 2NN). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1316 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £516,000 is 23.2% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£318/sq ft) was about 64.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 9 years ago, in June 2017.
