About 21 Challenger Close
21 Challenger Close is a mid-terrace house in Malvern (WR14 2NN). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 91), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in October 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 sits 358.5% above the 1996 sale of £41,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 66.9% below the postcode norm.
