About 5 Ashpool
5 Ashpool is a four-bedroom detached house in Whitbourne, Worcester, Worcester (WR6 5SD). It has a recorded floor area of 187 m² (around 2013 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2014. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on oil. Other recorded features include notable views and a self-contained annexe.
It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 187 m² the property is well over the postcode median (133 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £529,000 sits 61.8% above the 2007 sale of £327,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£162/sq ft) was about 19.1% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
