How Welsh Road West, Southam prices moved

The chart tracks the median Welsh Road West, Southam house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2003 to 2017. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Welsh Road West, Southam is £289,500 in 2017; the lowest is £187,500 in 2003. Across the full 15-year record the cash median has moved from £187,500 to £289,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £354,390, so the real change over the whole record is +11.2% — about +0.76% 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: +54.4% in cash against +11.2% 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.

Ownership and new build in Welsh Road West, Southam

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 71 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.

A further 2 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Rugby at £1,042 a month as of Jun 2026 — £750 for a one-bedroom home and £1,115 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £205,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.10% 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 CV47, 13 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 4 violent, 0 burglary, 1 vehicle-related and 3 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 12.8 times quieter.

Against the 114,363 residents the 2021 census counted in Rugby, that is 0.11 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.

How Welsh Road West, Southam compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Welsh Road West, Southam sits above that national figure — +30.2%.

Within Southam the street ranks 188 of 328 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £208,000 (-1.4%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,500 per square metre, across 7 of the 71 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 £59,000 to £399,500. 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.

Welsh Road West, Southam sits in Rugby, in the West Midlands.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Rugby at 6.9 times median local earnings of £42,966 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

When were Welsh Road West, Southam house prices at their highest?

£2,500 per square metre, from the 7 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.

The latest sale shown here completed on 12 Mar 2026. 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.
