About 2 Yew Tree Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Yew Tree Cottage is a semi-detached house in Bishops Frome, Worcester, Worcester (WR6 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 181 m² (around 1948 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £445,000 sits 888.9% above the 1997 sale of £45,000. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2025. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Yew Tree Cottage is modelled from its 181 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WR6 5AS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 2 Yew Tree Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Yew Tree Cottage was lodged in June 2014 at band D and expired in June 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2 Yew Tree Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from WR6 5AS. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Yew Tree Cottage is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
