In cash terms the typical CH46 home went from £43,500 in 1995 to £201,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 113%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 12% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CH46 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 (+25.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−6.4%). 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 year (since 2025) | −1.6% | −3.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.2% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +4.5% | +0.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.3% | +0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
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, 52% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £300,000 against £112,500 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
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.
CH46 recorded 292 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 510 sales a year before the financial crisis and 333 a year over the last five. 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.
What tenants pay around CH46
The local authority for CH46 is Wirral, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £838 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £558 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,222 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Wirral
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £201,800 median sold price, £838 a month is £10,056 a year, a gross yield of 5.0%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

On the market in CH46 today
Everything above is what homes in CH46 sold for. The live side of the market holds 123 homes at the moment, listed by 4 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 7% above the CH46 median sold price.

The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

When homes in CH46 change hands

What another bedroom costs in CH
What homes of each size actually sold for across the CH 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £220,000 | £245,000 (+11%) | £290,995 (+19%) | £375,000 (+29%) | £490,000 (+31%) |
| Semi-detached | £167,500 | £190,000 (+13%) | £220,000 (+16%) | £285,000 (+30%) | £365,000 (+28%) |
