How Cottingham Road, Hull prices moved
The chart tracks the median Cottingham Road, Hull house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 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 | 4 | £50,000 | £111,024 |
| 2000s | 10 | £79,995 | £145,727 |
| 2010s | 10 | £150,000 | £211,500 |
| 2020s | 5 | £181,500 | £185,446 |
The highest yearly median on record for Cottingham Road, Hull is £260,000 in 2022; the lowest is £39,475 in 2002. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £50,000 to £194,717.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £111,024, so the real change over the whole record is +79.2% — about +1.96% 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: +18.4% in cash against -14.2% 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.

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 Cottingham Road, Hull 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. Cottingham Road, Hull 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 128 | 43.1% | £130,000 | £22,000 – £325,000 |
| Terraced | 78 | 26.3% | £72,500 | £24,000 – £410,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 57 | 19.2% | £54,950 | £10,500 – £89,000 |
| Detached | 34 | 11.4% | £160,000 | £65,000 – £384,500 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Cottingham Road, Hull
54 of the sales on record are leasehold and 243 freehold — 18.2% 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 £53,475 and the median freehold sale £115,000 — a gap of +115.1%. 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 | 54 | 18.2% | £53,475 |
| Freehold | 243 | 81.8% | £115,000 |
| New build | 1 | 0.3% | £59,000 |
| Existing home | 296 | 99.7% | £85,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -30.6%. 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 74 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.

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

When were Cottingham Road, Hull house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £260,000, set in 2022. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

£1,173 per square metre, from the 79 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.
