Overview

About Magpie Cottage

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

Magpie Cottage is a five-bedroom detached house in Crowle, Worcester, Worcester (WR7 4AR). It has a recorded floor area of 215 m² (around 2311 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 1998–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £721,000 is 24.3% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£251/sq ft) was about 28.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

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 Magpie Cottage is modelled from its 215 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WR7 4AR. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Magpie 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 Magpie Cottage was lodged in January 2009 at band D and expired in January 2019, 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 Magpie 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 14 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WR7 4AR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Magpie Cottage is in council tax band G. 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.
