How Bishops Road, Welwyn prices moved
The chart tracks the median Bishops Road, Welwyn house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 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 | 1 | £235,000 | £521,811 |
| 2010s | 1 | £810,000 | £1,142,100 |
| 2020s | 1 | £1,350,000 | £1,379,348 |
The highest yearly median on record for Bishops Road, Welwyn is £1,350,000 in 2023; the lowest is £235,000 in 1996. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £235,000 to £1,350,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £509,769, so the real change over the whole record is +186.1% — about +3.97% 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: +66.7% in cash against +23.5% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Bishops Road, Welwyn 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 | 48 | 100.0% | £810,000 | £220,000 – £1,950,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Bishops Road, Welwyn
1 of the sales on record are leasehold and 47 freehold — 2.1% 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 £340,000 and the median freehold sale £811,620 — a gap of +138.7%. 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 | 1 | 2.1% | £340,000 |
| Freehold | 47 | 97.9% | £811,620 |
Section 09
How Bishops Road, Welwyn compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Bishops Road, Welwyn sits above that national figure — +414.8%.
Within Welwyn the street ranks 21 of 211 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £410,000 (+97.8%).

The full range on record runs from £220,000 to £1,950,000. 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 Bishops Road, Welwyn?
The median price paid in Bishops Road, Welwyn across every sale on the register is £810,810. 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 Bishops Road, Welwyn?
48 sales are on record for Bishops Road, Welwyn, the most recent completing on 6 Nov 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Bishops Road, Welwyn house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +66.7% between 2013 and 2023. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +23.5%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Bishops Road, Welwyn house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £1,350,000, set in 2023. 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 Bishops Road, Welwyn?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 6 Nov 2025. 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.
