Market Overview: CW1
Turnover in CW1 has been high, with 280 residential sales logged by HM Land Registry in the last twelve months — enough volume that the median figure is reasonably representative. Individual sales ranged from £45k to £2.62m, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — semi-detached houses led with 40% but the mix is diverse, while terraced houses accounted for 30% and detached houses accounted for 23%.
The twelve-month trend is upward: comparing the first half of the window with the second, the median shifted by roughly +7.5%. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
Liquidity in CW1 2AF is healthy: the high sale count makes it easier to benchmark a specific property against genuinely recent comparables rather than extrapolating from older deals. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 6.2%, based on ONS regional rents.
