Overview

About The Cottage

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

The Cottage is a detached house in Abberley, Worcester, Worcester (WR6 6AF). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for The Cottage is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WR6 6AF. 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 The 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 The Cottage was lodged in March 2015 at band F and expired in March 2025, 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. None is matched to The 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. The 1 school and 14 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WR6 6AF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
