How Wenlock Way, Thatcham prices moved
The chart tracks the median Wenlock Way, Thatcham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2023. 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 | £52,500 | £116,575 |
| 2000s | 9 | £133,500 | £243,198 |
| 2010s | 3 | £278,000 | £391,980 |
| 2020s | 1 | £325,500 | £332,576 |
The highest yearly median on record for Wenlock Way, Thatcham is £325,500 in 2023; the lowest is £48,250 in 1996. Across the full 29-year record the cash median has moved from £63,000 to £325,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £139,890, so the real change over the whole record is +151.4% — about +3.35% 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: +103.4% in cash against +33.8% 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 Wenlock Way, Thatcham 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. Wenlock Way, Thatcham 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 | 50 | 33.1% | £148,500 | £44,500 – £340,000 |
| Terraced | 47 | 31.1% | £139,950 | £45,500 – £357,000 |

| Detached | 26 | 17.2% | £260,000 | £88,000 – £475,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Wenlock Way, Thatcham
28 of the sales on record are leasehold and 123 freehold — 18.5% 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 £113,250 and the median freehold sale £161,000 — a gap of +42.2%. 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 | 28 | 18.5% | £113,250 |
| Freehold | 123 | 81.5% | £161,000 |
| New build | 1 | 0.7% | £115,000 |
| Existing home | 150 | 99.3% | £143,975 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -20.1%. 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.
Section 09
How Wenlock Way, Thatcham compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Wenlock Way, Thatcham sits below that national figure — -9.2%.
Within Thatcham the street ranks 431 of 464 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £218,500 (-34.6%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,884 per square metre, across 46 of the 151 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 £36,000 to £475,000. 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.
