How Wheatley Drive, Cottingham prices moved
The chart tracks the median Wheatley Drive, Cottingham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2016 to 2020. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010s | 4 | £287,495 | £405,368 |
| 2020s | 1 | £259,999 | £265,651 |
The highest yearly median on record for Wheatley Drive, Cottingham is £330,995 in 2018; the lowest is £179,999 in 2019. Across the full 5-year record the cash median has moved from £287,495 to £259,999.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £401,354, so the real change over the whole record is -16.1% — about -4.30% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Section 02
The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Wheatley Drive, Cottingham is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 42 | 70.0% | £319,995 | £219,999 – £448,750 |
| Terraced | 10 | 16.7% | £179,999 | £174,999 – £217,500 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Wheatley Drive, Cottingham
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 60 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 60 | 100.0% | £279,999 |
| New build | 46 | 76.7% | £262,497 |
| Existing home | 14 | 23.3% | £319,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -17.7%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
A further 6 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09

Within Cottingham the street ranks 29 of 263 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £150,000 (+86.7%).
