In cash terms the typical B78 home went from £53,500 in 1995 to £250,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 115%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 22% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the B78 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 2003 (+26.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−7.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −7.4% | −9.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.2% | −4.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 41% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £360,000 against £152,500 for a flat, 2.4 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
B78 recorded 308 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 487 sales a year before the financial crisis and 374 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around B78
For renting purposes B78 sits in North Warwickshire. The ONS average private rent there is £975 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £715 a month here against £1,592 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, North Warwickshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £250,000 median purchase price, a rent of £975 a month (£11,700 a year) works out at a 4.7% 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.
What kind of market B78 is
Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.

What another bedroom costs in B
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the B area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £306,000 | £425,000 (+39%) | £665,000 (+56%) | £950,000 (+43%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
