How Heronbrook, Whitchurch prices moved
The chart tracks the median Heronbrook, Whitchurch house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2002. 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 | 2 | £96,950 | £215,275 |
| 2000s | 3 | £121,950 | £222,157 |
The highest yearly median on record for Heronbrook, Whitchurch is £132,500 in 2002; the lowest is £96,950 in 1998. Across the full 5-year record the cash median has moved from £96,950 to £132,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £201,029, so the real change over the whole record is +27.1% — about +6.19% 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.
Section 02
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. Heronbrook, Whitchurch 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 | 58 | 100.0% | £130,000 | £82,650 – £340,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Heronbrook, Whitchurch
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 58 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 58 | 100.0% | £131,250 |
| New build | 28 | 48.3% | £101,725 |
| Existing home | 30 | 51.7% | £195,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -47.8%. 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Cheshire East, 44.0% of 197,366 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.1% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of SY13, 10 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 3 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 2 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 16.7 times quieter.
Against the 398,772 residents the 2021 census counted in Cheshire East, that is 0.03 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.

Heronbrook, Whitchurch sits in Cheshire East, in the West Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Cheshire East at 7.6 times median local earnings of £39,459 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
