| 1995 | £87,500 | £190,212 | 187 |
In cash terms the typical CW6 home went from £87,500 in 1995 to £408,400 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 115%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 29% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CW6 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 1999 (+30.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−21.7%). 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) | −4.4% | −6.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.2% | −5.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.1% |
| 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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 57% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £530,000 against £153,200 for a flat, 3.5 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
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 monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
CW6 recorded 162 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 190 sales a year recently, against 232 a year before 2008. 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.
How CW6 trades
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. CW6 is currently the dearest district of its postcode area by median price.
What homes rent for around CW6
CW6 falls under Cheshire West and Chester, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £974 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £712 a month here against £1,586 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Cheshire West and Chester
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £408,400 median purchase price, a rent of £974 a month (£11,688 a year) works out at a 2.9% 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
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CW 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 | — | £260,000 | £365,000 (+40%) | £550,000 (+51%) | £788,000 (+43%) |

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.
