In cash terms the typical CW1 home went from £40,000 in 1995 to £195,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 124%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 15% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the CW1 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 (+31.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−6.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
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, 40% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £287,500 against £95,000 for a flat, 3.0 times the price.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.8% | +1.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.8% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
CW1 recorded 497 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,065 sales a year before the financial crisis and 573 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
Reading the CW1 market
By median price CW1 sits at the bottom of its postcode area: the cheapest way in, with the least expectation already in the price.
What tenants pay around CW1
CW1 falls under Cheshire East, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £979 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £692 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,603, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Cheshire East
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £195,000 median purchase price, a rent of £979 a month (£11,748 a year) works out at a 6.0% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

What another bedroom costs in CW
Real sold prices by size across the CW area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £260,000 | £365,000 (+40%) | £550,000 (+51%) | £788,000 (+43%) |
| Semi-detached | £175,000 | £205,000 (+17%) | £258,000 (+26%) | £362,495 (+41%) | £515,000 (+42%) |
| Terraced | £147,000 | £160,000 (+9%) | £190,000 (+19%) | £280,000 (+47%) | £545,000 (+95%) |
| Flat | £115,000 | £140,000 (+22%) | £190,000 (+36%) | — | — |
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.
