Whitley market report CV3 4, Coventry
The CV3 4 (Whitley) 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: 2,901 sales registered with HM Land Registry in CV3 4 (Coventry) 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 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: the 2026 median for CV3 4 (Coventry) is £170,000, from 17 registered sales, down 5% on five years earlier; the mean is £180,800, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,530 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 2,901 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
A postcode sector like CV3 4 is a single group of streets within CV3 (Coventry), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

CV3 4 prices by floor area

In cash terms the typical CV3 4 home went from £35,000 in 1995 to £170,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 123%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CV3 4 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 (+36.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−13.3%). 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) | −8.4% | −10.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.1% | −5.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.5% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
Sales activity in CV3 4
How many homes change hands
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.
The register shows 17 CV3 4 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 140 sales a year before the financial crisis and 54 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.
The shape of the CV3 4 market
Only 17 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CV3 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Within CV3, this sector trades 32% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
Rents around CV3 4
CV3 4 falls under Coventry, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,017 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £757 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,452 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Coventry
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,017 a month is £12,204 a year, which against the £170,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 7.2%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

What you could buy in CV3 now
Turning to what is actually available: 161 homes on the market right now, from 11 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole CV3 district, not just CV3 4: live asking prices are collected per district.
27% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
The price of an extra bedroom in CV
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CV 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £305,000 | £417,995 (+37%) | £650,000 (+56%) | £910,000 (+40%) |

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
