Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Woodvale Road, Cowes values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Woodvale Road, Cowes 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 | 54 | 78.3% | £295,000 | £60,000 – £552,500 |
| Terraced | 13 | 18.8% | £230,000 | £85,000 – £975,000 |
| Semi-detached | 1 | 1.4% | £86,000 | £86,000 – £86,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 1 | 1.4% | £248,000 | £248,000 – £248,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Woodvale Road, Cowes
2 of the sales on record are leasehold and 67 freehold — 2.9% 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 £192,000 and the median freehold sale £295,000 — a gap of +53.6%. 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 | 2 | 2.9% | £192,000 |
| Freehold | 67 | 97.1% | £295,000 |
A further 1 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
How Woodvale Road, Cowes compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Woodvale Road, Cowes sits above that national figure — +86.7%.
Within Cowes the street ranks 24 of 198 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £160,000 (+83.7%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,990 per square metre, across 15 of the 69 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £60,000 to £975,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Woodvale Road, Cowes?

How many homes have sold in Woodvale Road, Cowes?

When were Woodvale Road, Cowes house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £390,000, set in 2014. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Woodvale Road, Cowes?
£1,990 per square metre, from the 15 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.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 20 Dec 2023. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
