How Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry prices moved
The chart tracks the median Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2025. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 3 | £44,500 | £98,811 |
| 2000s | 8 | £118,125 | £215,189 |
| 2010s | 8 | £144,000 | £203,040 |
| 2020s | 5 | £195,000 | £199,239 |
The highest yearly median on record for Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry is £225,000 in 2025; the lowest is £44,000 in 1998. Across the full 29-year record the cash median has moved from £44,500 to £225,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £94,353, so the real change over the whole record is +143.6% — about +3.23% 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.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +11.4% in cash against -19.3% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 123 | 48.6% | £135,500 | £27,500 – £325,000 |
| Semi-detached | 84 | 33.2% | £136,500 | £27,000 – £302,500 |
| Flat or maisonette | 44 | 17.4% | £125,000 | £110,000 – £172,000 |
| Detached | 2 | 0.8% | £52,000 | £52,000 – £475,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry
44 of the sales on record are leasehold and 209 freehold — 17.4% 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.
The median leasehold sale is £125,000 and the median freehold sale £136,000 — a gap of +8.8%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 44 | 17.4% | £125,000 |
| Freehold | 209 | 82.6% | £136,000 |
| New build | 27 | 10.7% | £127,250 |
| Existing home | 226 | 89.3% | £130,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -2.1%. 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 25 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.

Living in Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Coventry, 42.8% of 184,230 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.4% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 722 | 0.4% |
| B | 16,600 | 9.0% |
| C | 61,487 | 33.4% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Coventry at £1,018 a month as of Jun 2026 — £758 for a one-bedroom home and £1,064 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £130,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.40% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of CV6, 403 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 171 violent, 16 burglary, 26 vehicle-related and 15 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.4 times busier.
Against the 345,325 residents the 2021 census counted in Coventry, that is 1.17 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry
The 2021 census counted 345,325 residents in Coventry across 134,140 households. 58.1% of those households own their home and 41.7% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
28 state and independent schools have a CV6 postcode: 24 primary, 4 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,841 per square metre, across 70 of the 253 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

Barkers Butts Lane, Coventry sits in Coventry, in the West Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Coventry at 5.5 times median local earnings of £41,278 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

£1,841 per square metre, from the 70 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
