In cash terms the typical CV8 1 home went from £79,000 in 1995 to £366,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 113%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 28% 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 CV8 1 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 1998 (+31.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.5%). 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) | −6.0% | −8.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.8% | −6.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.5% | −0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.6% | −0.2% |
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 CV8 1
The year-by-year sales count
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.
CV8 1 recorded 71 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 248 sales a year before the financial crisis and 152 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.
Rents around CV8 1
CV8 1 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 £366,000 median sold price, £1,238 a month is £14,856 a year, a gross yield of 4.1%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in CV
Real sold prices by size across the CV area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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%) |
| Semi-detached | £215,000 | £255,000 (+19%) | £307,000 (+20%) | £425,000 (+38%) | £607,500 (+43%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
