Overview

About Brickyard Cottage

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

Brickyard Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Norton, Worcester, Worcester (WR5 2PR). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 61.3% above the 2016 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£178/sq ft) was about 38.1% below the postcode norm. At 120 m² it's 19.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (100 m² median across 8 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2005.
