In cash terms the typical WR13 6 home went from £112,000 in 1995 to £460,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 89%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 21% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the WR13 6 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2004 (+39.5% on the year before); the weakest, 1996 (−18.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What WR13 6 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.1% | −8.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.4% | −2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.4% | −1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
How many homes change hands in WR13 6
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 17 sales completed in WR13 6. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 56 sales a year recently, against 68 a year before 2008. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
Rents around WR13 6
WR13 6 falls under Malvern Hills, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £940 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £692 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,474, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Malvern Hills
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £460,000 median purchase price, a rent of £940 a month (£11,280 a year) works out at a 2.5% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
Reading the WR13 6 market
Only 17 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes WR13 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within WR13, this sector trades 26% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

What another bedroom costs in WR
What homes of each size actually sold for across the WR area, from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
