Overview

About 3 The Orchards

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

3 The Orchards is an end-of-terrace house in Norton, Worcester, Worcester (WR5 2PY). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows an F (score 23), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it C (January 2013); the latest reading is 3 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 110 m² it sits well below the postcode median (173 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
