Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on WA14: steady sales, so price from the evidence

WA14 is neither busy nor quiet, at about 34 sales a month, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.

If you are thinking of selling, most WA14 sales sit between £185,000 and £961,900, which makes £425,000 a blunt instrument, so price from sold homes that match yours in type and size; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

If you are looking to buy, typical prices in WA14 sit well above the UK average, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

Our checklist before an offer: what has been applied for nearby (1,300 applications on record within 500 m), the tenure (leasehold is common here) and whether the home is at risk of flooding, plus the title, which your conveyancer should review.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free WA14 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the Cheshire East (WA14) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £910,000 against £220,000 for flats: about 4.1 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £185,000 and £961,900, so the median says little about any one home.
  • 39% of these sales were leasehold: a genuine mix of houses and flats, so check the tenure of the home you are looking at.
  • This is an active district: about 34 recorded sales a month.

Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so WA14 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in WA14: 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.

Cheshire East's council tax for 2026-27 set against the WA14 median sold price of £425,000 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 WA14 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 WA14 report: your questions

What is the average house price in WA14?
The typical (median) sold price in WA14 is £425,000, from 250 recorded sales between 9 January 2026 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £185,000 and £961,900. 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 WA14?
Typical sold prices by type in WA14: terraced homes £408,000 (75 sales), semi-detached homes £511,500 (68 sales), flats £220,000 (63 sales), detached homes £910,000 (32 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in WA14?
WA14 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 WA14?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the WA14 district centre, the nearest being Loreto Grammar School (last Ofsted grade: Outstanding). 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 WA14 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 WA14 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 WA14 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 3 to decile 10, with a median of decile 9 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 WA14 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near WA14?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 1300 applications within 500 m of the WA14 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 WA14 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 243 distinct addresses in the records we hold for WA14, 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 WA14 cover my exact street?
WA14 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.
