Overview

About 6 The Firs

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

6 The Firs is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Whittington, Worcester, Worcester (WR5 2RP). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 889 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a G (score 20), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 50), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £163,000 is 30.4% above the 2009 sale price.
