About Top Flat
Top Flat is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Malvern (WR14 1AA). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2025) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
It hasn't traded since June 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. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £158,000 is 19.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£219/sq ft) was about 23.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
