Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on CW5: steady sales, so price from the evidence

At around 40 sales a month, CW5 ticks along steadily, which is enough to price from, though not enough history for us to call a clear twelve-month direction.

If you are selling, with detached homes at £448,500 and flats at £120,000, the £125,900 to £578,750 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

If you are buying, on price, CW5 is close to the UK average, so the sold homes of your type are the yardstick to hold an asking price to.

Before an offer goes in on any CW5 home, look at what has been applied for nearby (428 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,455 a year), and leave the title to your conveyancer.

Averages only go so far, so the free CW5 OfferCheck sets flood, crime, planning and council tax beside the sold prices.

In plain English

What the Cheshire East (CW5) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £448,500 against £120,000 for flats: about 3.7 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £125,900 and £578,750, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 40 recorded sales a month.

That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the CW5 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 CW5 report: your questions

What is the average house price in CW5?
The typical (median) sold price in CW5 is £284,000, from 250 recorded sales between 13 February 2026 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £125,900 and £578,750. That is close to 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 CW5?
Typical sold prices by type in CW5: detached homes £448,500 (88 sales), semi-detached homes £270,500 (66 sales), terraced homes £226,000 (56 sales), flats £120,000 (31 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in CW5?
CW5 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 CW5?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the CW5 district centre, the nearest being St Anne's Catholic 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 CW5 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 CW5 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 CW5 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 8 to decile 10, with a median of decile 10 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 CW5 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near CW5?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 428 applications within 500 m of the CW5 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 CW5 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 241 distinct addresses in the records we hold for CW5, 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 CW5 cover my exact street?
CW5 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.
