In cash terms the typical CW11 3 home went from £57,000 in 1995 to £263,500 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. The real-terms peak came in 2019, and today's median remains roughly 14% under it: a 2019 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+36.6% on the year before); the weakest, 1999 (−9.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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 58 CW11 3 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 185 sales a year recently, against 224 a year before 2008. 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 homes rent for around CW11 3

The local authority for CW11 3 is Cheshire East, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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.

Against the £263,500 median purchase price, a rent of £979 a month (£11,748 a year) works out at a 4.5% 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.

The shape of the CW11 3 market

This is a thin market: 58 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict.

Bedroom by bedroom: CW prices by size

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.
