In cash terms the typical WS11 5 home went from £40,000 in 1995 to £192,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 121%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the WS11 5 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 (+22.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−11.2%). 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% | −3.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.1% | −1.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.4% | +0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Sales activity in WS11 5
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 36 WS11 5 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 131 sales a year before the financial crisis and 74 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 kind of market WS11 5 is
Only 36 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes WS11 5 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. Against the WS11 district median, WS11 5 sits 12% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
The rental side of WS11 5
The local authority for WS11 5 is Cannock Chase, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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.
Set against the £192,500 median sold price, £848 a month is £10,176 a year, a gross yield of 5.3%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

The price of an extra bedroom in WS
What homes of each size actually sold for across the WS area, 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%) |
| Terraced | £175,000 | £183,250 (+5%) | £212,500 (+16%) | £291,500 (+37%) | — |
| Flat | £115,000 | £151,000 (+31%) | £247,500 (+64%) | — | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
