Market Overview: CW5
With 421 recorded transactions in twelve months, CW5 is one of the more liquid postcodes in the sample — individual outliers have less pull on the median figure than they would elsewhere.
No single property type dominates — detached houses led with 38% but the mix is diverse, while semi-detached houses accounted for 24% and terraced houses accounted for 25%.
The twelve-month trend is upward: comparing the first half of the window with the second, the median shifted by roughly +10.8%. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
For buyers and sellers in CW5 5AB, the wide dispersion means averages are a weak guide — comparable sales matched on property type, floor area and condition will produce a far tighter estimate. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 3.9%, based on ONS regional rents.
