In cash terms the typical WS11 4 home went from £37,500 in 1995 to £197,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 142%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 8% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the WS11 4 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 2014 (+31.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−22.0%). 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) | +1.3% | −1.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +5.7% | +0.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.3% | +1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +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 WS11 4
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 register shows 14 WS11 4 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 61 sales a year before the financial crisis and 41 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.
What homes rent for around WS11 4
WS11 4 falls under Cannock Chase, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £848 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £576 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,319, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Cannock Chase
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£848 a month is £10,176 a year, which against the £197,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.2%. 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.
How WS11 4 trades
Only 14 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes WS11 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the WS11 district median, WS11 4 sits 10% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

Bedroom by bedroom: WS prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the WS 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 | — | £275,000 | £370,000 (+35%) | £572,400 (+55%) | £821,400 (+44%) |
| Semi-detached | £196,000 | £215,000 (+10%) | £255,000 (+19%) | £340,000 (+33%) | £400,000 (+18%) |

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.
