Warley market report CM14, Brentwood
The CM14 (Warley) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 15,037 sales registered with HM Land Registry in CM14 (Brentwood) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to July 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 132 registered 2026 sales put the CM14 (Brentwood) median at £411,200, up 3% on five years earlier, with a mean of £443,600, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £5,270 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 15,037 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
The postcode district CM14 covering Brentwood, Warley sits in Brentwood. A district is the workhorse unit for reading a market: local enough to be meaningful, busy enough that the medians rest on a steady flow of sales.

| 1995 | £66,200 | £143,909 | 381 |
In cash terms the typical CM14 home went from £66,200 in 1995 to £411,200 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 186%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 19% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the CM14 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 (+25.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−7.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.5% | −7.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.6% | −4.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.5% | −1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of flats dominate the record here, 40% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £728,100 against £289,000 for a flat, 2.5 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 304 sales completed in CM14. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 570 sales a year before the financial crisis and 347 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 CM14
CM14 falls under Brentwood, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,613 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,102 a month here against £2,402 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Brentwood
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £411,200 median sold price, £1,613 a month is £19,356 a year, a gross yield of 4.7%: 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: CM prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CM area. 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.

| Detached | — | £417,500 | £550,000 (+32%) | £785,000 (+43%) | £1,137,500 (+45%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
