Overview

About 4a

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

4a is a detached house in Kempsey, Worcester, Worcester (WR5 3PZ). It has a recorded floor area of 250 m² (around 2691 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on wood logs. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 250 m² the property is well over the postcode median (118 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £759,000 sits 62.5% above the 2014 sale of £467,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 25.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in January 2014.
