Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on CW4: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

CW4 is neither busy nor quiet, at about 15 sales a month, enough to learn from, though the year-on-year comparison is too thin to quote, so lean on the recent sold homes.

When selling here, £392,500 is only the middle of a market that runs from £151,500 to £712,050, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

For buyers, on price, CW4 is well above the UK average, so a premium over the average needs a reason you can see in the sold homes of the same type.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (83 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,455 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free CW4 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the Cheshire East (CW4) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £498,000 against £125,000 for flats: about 4.0 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £151,500 and £712,050, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 15 recorded sales a month.

Across the 12 sampled CW4 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 7 to decile 10, with a median of decile 7 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

CW4 8DX, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 7 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so CW4 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in CW4: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

What it costs to run a home in CW4, band by band

Cheshire East's council tax for 2026-27 set against the CW4 median sold price of £392,500 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the CW4 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The CW4 report: your questions

What is the average house price in CW4?
The typical (median) sold price in CW4 is £392,500, from 250 recorded sales between 28 March 2025 and 14 August 2026. Most sales fell between £151,500 and £712,050. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (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.
What does each type of home cost in CW4?
Typical sold prices by type in CW4: detached homes £498,000 (129 sales), semi-detached homes £323,500 (62 sales), terraced homes £275,000 (27 sales), flats £125,000 (23 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in CW4?
CW4 is billed by Cheshire East, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,455 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near CW4?
The Department for Education's register lists 4 open schools within 3 km of the CW4 district centre, the nearest being Hermitage Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the CW4 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is CW4 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 CW4 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 7 to decile 10, with a median of decile 7 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like CW4 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near CW4?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 83 applications within 500 m of the CW4 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in CW4 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 233 distinct addresses in the records we hold for CW4, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does CW4 cover my exact street?
CW4 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
