In cash terms the typical WA4 3 home went from £67,000 in 1995 to £324,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 122%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2023. The market now sits about 31% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the WA4 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 (+43.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2001 (−28.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What WA4 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.4% | +2.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.9% | −2.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −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.
How many homes change hands in WA4 3
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 36 WA4 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 102 sales a year before the financial crisis and 79 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.
How WA4 3 trades
Only 36 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes WA4 3 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.
What homes rent for around WA4 3
For renting purposes WA4 3 sits in Warrington. The ONS average private rent there is £885 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £663 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,436, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Warrington
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£885 a month is £10,620 a year, which against the £324,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.3%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

What another bedroom costs in WA
Real sold prices by size across the WA 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.
