In cash terms the typical CV31 3 home went from £54,000 in 1995 to £255,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 117%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2020. The market now sits about 23% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CV31 3 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 2002 (+25.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CV31 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −3.8% | −6.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.4% | −5.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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.
How many homes change hands in CV31 3
Sales per year, counted
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 register shows 36 CV31 3 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 165 sales a year before the financial crisis and 77 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.
Reading the CV31 3 market
Only 36 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CV31 3 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 CV31, this sector trades 15% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
The rental side of CV31 3
CV31 3 falls under Warwick, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,238 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £881 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,906 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Warwick
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £255,000 median sold price, £1,238 a month is £14,856 a year, a gross yield of 5.8%: 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.

What another bedroom costs in CV
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CV area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
