In plain English

What the Coventry numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £404,000 against £130,000 for flats: about 3.1 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £125,000 and £414,100, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is a busy district: about 152 recorded sales a month.

Questions, answered

Coventry house prices: your questions

What is the average house price in Coventry?
The typical (median) sold price in Coventry (the CV1, CV3 and CV5 postcode districts) is £235,000, from 1,820 recorded sales between 1 August 2025 and 31 July 2026. Most sales fell between £125,000 and £414,100. That is close to the West Midlands average (£250,731) but below the UK average (£273,037) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
Are house prices going up in Coventry?
The local median is down 2.1% over the last twelve months, comparing 1,820 sales with 2,296 in the twelve months before. The West Midlands index moved +1.2% over the same period. A past trend is not a forecast.
What can I buy for £250,000 in Coventry?
56.4% of the 1,820 homes sold in Coventry between August 2025 to July 2026 went for less than £250,000, which was 8.4% of detached homes, 31.1% of semi-detached homes, 71.7% of terraced homes and 95.6% of flats. The districts with a median under £250,000 were CV1 and CV3. These are sold prices, not asking prices, so use them to judge what is realistic.
Do new-build homes cost more in Coventry?
Comparing like with like, the median new-build price against existing homes of the same type was: semi-detached homes +10.1% (£308,246 against £280,000). New-builds made up 1.5% of sales. A new-build and a resale of the same type can differ in size and location, so read this as a guide.
Which part of Coventry is cheapest?
Of the districts we pool, CV1 had the lowest median at £159,250 (214 sales) and CV5 the highest at £250,000 (747 sales). These districts stand in for Coventry; they are not every part of it.
