How Walker Road, Walsall prices moved
The chart tracks the median Walker Road, Walsall house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2005 to 2024. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 4 | £100,937 | £183,877 |
| 2010s | 1 | £103,000 | £145,230 |
| 2020s | 1 | £103,050 | £105,290 |
The highest yearly median on record for Walker Road, Walsall is £109,795 in 2008; the lowest is £87,000 in 2005. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £87,000 to £103,050.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £158,488, so the real change over the whole record is -31.6% — about -1.98% 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: -6.1% in cash against -41.2% 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.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Section 03
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 Walker Road, Walsall values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Walker Road, Walsall 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 98 | 68.1% | £100,938 | £50,950 – £121,995 |
| Semi-detached | 36 | 25.0% | £80,000 | £24,000 – £236,000 |
| Terraced | 5 | 3.5% | £87,000 | £46,000 – £115,000 |
| Detached | 5 | 3.5% | £131,250 | £56,000 – £265,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Walker Road, Walsall
98 of the sales on record are leasehold and 46 freehold — 68.1% 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 £101,363 and the median freehold sale £86,000 — a gap of -15.2%. 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 | 98 | 68.1% | £101,363 |
| Freehold | 46 | 31.9% | £86,000 |
| New build | 49 | 34.0% | £107,100 |
| Existing home | 95 | 66.0% | £89,999 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +19.0%. 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 18 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 Walker Road, Walsall
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Cannock Chase, 42.7% of 47,705 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.0% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|

| B | 5,728 | 12.0% |
| C | 14,442 | 30.3% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Cannock Chase at £854 a month as of Jun 2026 — £580 for a one-bedroom home and £949 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £100,937 here, that rent is a gross yield of 10.15% 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 WS3, 289 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 121 violent, 13 burglary, 26 vehicle-related and 14 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.7 times busier.
Against the 100,519 residents the 2021 census counted in Cannock Chase, that is 2.88 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.

The neighbourhood around Walker Road, Walsall
The 2021 census counted 100,519 residents in Cannock Chase across 43,456 households. 67.8% of those households own their home and 32.0% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
23 state and independent schools have a WS3 postcode: 19 primary, 3 nursery, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Walker Road, Walsall compares

Within Walsall the street ranks 1218 of 1842 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £119,963 (-15.9%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,642 per square metre, across 51 of the 144 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 £24,000 to £265,000. 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.
Walker Road, Walsall sits in Cannock Chase, in the West Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Cannock Chase at 6.3 times median local earnings of £36,211 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Walker Road, Walsall?
The median price paid in Walker Road, Walsall across every sale on the register is £100,937. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Walker Road, Walsall?
144 sales are on record for Walker Road, Walsall, the most recent completing on 8 Jan 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Walker Road, Walsall house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose -6.1% between 2008 and 2024. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -41.2%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Walker Road, Walsall house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £109,795, set in 2008. 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 Walker Road, Walsall?
£1,642 per square metre, from the 51 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 8 Jan 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.
