Overview

About Willow Barn

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

Willow Barn is a four-bedroom detached house in Crowle, Worcester, Worcester (WR7 4AR). It has a recorded floor area of 222 m² (around 2390 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (October 2024) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). Main heating runs on lpg. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since September 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. 5 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £680,000 is 38.8% above the 2007 sale price.

Method

How 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 Willow Barn is modelled from its 222 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale 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. 1 sale is recorded for Willow Barn. 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 Willow Barn was lodged in October 2024 at band E and is valid until October 2034. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to Willow Barn. 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
Willow Barn is in council tax band E. 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.
