Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on WR7: few sales, so go in with your eyes open

At around 6 sales a month, WR7 is quiet, and prices have drifted down, so sellers should plan for a longer sale and buyers can afford to be patient.

When selling here, the spread in WR7 is wide, with most sales between £279,600 and £855,250, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; sales are too rare here to hurry, so give the price a local agent’s sense-check; a quick cash sale buys certainty at a cost, usually about 70–85% of market value as a rough guide, not a quote, so weigh it carefully.

Sell house

For buyers, on price, WR7 is well above the UK average, but the local median has slipped, so it is fair to test an asking price, though a dip is not a trend.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (45 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,406 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

With averages this broad, the free WR7 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning and council tax from the official sources.

In plain English

What the Worcester (WR7) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £595,000 against £297,500 for terraced homes: about 2.0 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £279,600 and £855,250, so the median says little about any one home.
  • Nearly all of these sales (100%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.

Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.

  • This is a quiet district: only about 6 recorded sales a month.

What it costs to run a home in WR7, band by band

Worcester's council tax for 2026-27 set against the WR7 median sold price of £535,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the WR7 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The WR7 report: your questions

What is the average house price in WR7?
The typical (median) sold price in WR7 is £535,000, from 250 recorded sales between 29 November 2022 and 20 August 2026. Most sales fell between £279,600 and £855,250. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
Are house prices going up in WR7?
The local median is down 13% over the last twelve months, comparing 62 sales with 77 in the twelve months before. A past trend is not a forecast.
How many homes sold in WR7 last year?
62 sales were recorded in the most recent twelve months we can measure, against 77 in the twelve months before. Recent sales can take weeks to reach the register, so the latest months may rise a little.
What does each type of home cost in WR7?
Typical sold prices by type in WR7: detached homes £595,000 (165 sales), semi-detached homes £336,000 (39 sales), terraced homes £297,500 (16 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in WR7?
WR7 is billed by Worcester, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,406 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near WR7?
The Department for Education's register lists 2 open schools within 3 km of the WR7 district centre, the nearest being Flyford Flavell Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the WR7 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is WR7 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 WR7 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 4 to decile 8, with a median of decile 5 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like WR7 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near WR7?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 45 applications within 500 m of the WR7 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
