Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on WS14: steady sales, so price from the evidence

Roughly 24 homes a month change hands in WS14, and with no dependable year-on-year figure to hand, recent sold homes are a safer guide than any headline.

If you are selling, with detached homes at £580,000 and flats at £141,000, the £180,000 to £701,400 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; roughly 24 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.

Sell house

If you are buying, typical prices in WS14 sit above the UK average, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

On any WS14 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (28 applications on record within 500 m), whether a new-build premium is baked into the price and flood risk over the long term, and ask a conveyancer to read the title.

Where the numbers are this loose, the free WS14 OfferCheck gives you something firmer to hold: flood, crime, planning and council tax, each with its source.

In plain English

What the Lichfield (WS14) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £580,000 against £141,000 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 £180,000 and £701,400, so the median says little about any one home.
  • 19% of these sales were new builds, which often sell at a premium the first time around and can lift the median above what resale homes make.
  • This is an active district: about 24 recorded sales a month.

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 WS14 report: your questions

What is the average house price in WS14?
The typical (median) sold price in WS14 is £337,500, from 250 recorded sales between 29 September 2025 and 17 August 2026. Most sales fell between £180,000 and £701,400. That is 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 WS14?
Typical sold prices by type in WS14: semi-detached homes £303,581 (104 sales), detached homes £580,000 (87 sales), terraced homes £270,000 (31 sales), flats £141,000 (24 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in WS14?
WS14 is billed by Lichfield, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,352 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 WS14?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the WS14 district centre, the nearest being Saxon Hill Academy (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 WS14 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 WS14 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 WS14 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 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 WS14 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near WS14?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 28 applications within 500 m of the WS14 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 WS14 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 247 distinct addresses in the records we hold for WS14, 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 WS14 cover my exact street?
WS14 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.
