How Cotswold Grove, Willenhall prices moved
The chart tracks the median Cotswold Grove, Willenhall house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2006. 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 | £44,000 | £97,701 |
| 2000s | 1 | £79,950 | £145,645 |
The highest yearly median on record for Cotswold Grove, Willenhall is £79,950 in 2006; the lowest is £44,000 in 1999. Across the full 10-year record the cash median has moved from £47,950 to £79,950.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £101,668, so the real change over the whole record is +40.0% — about +3.81% 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 +40.0% 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 Cotswold Grove, Willenhall 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. Cotswold Grove, Willenhall 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 28 | 39.4% | £80,000 | £25,000 – £140,000 |
| Semi-detached | 21 | 29.6% | £63,000 | £25,000 – £194,500 |
| Flat or maisonette | 21 | 29.6% | £65,000 | £23,500 – £120,000 |
| Detached | 1 | 1.4% | £150,000 | £150,000 – £150,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Cotswold Grove, Willenhall
64 of the sales on record are leasehold and 7 freehold — 90.1% 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 £79,475 and the median freehold sale £59,000 — a gap of -25.8%. 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 | 64 | 90.1% | £79,475 |
| Freehold | 7 | 9.9% | £59,000 |
| New build | 1 | 1.4% | £37,000 |
| Existing home | 70 | 98.6% | £79,475 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -53.4%. 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.

Living in Cotswold Grove, Willenhall
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Walsall, 40.2% of 130,838 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.8% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 350 | 0.3% |
| B | 10,812 | 8.3% |
| C | 41,383 | 31.6% |
| D | 54,193 | 41.4% |
| E | 19,140 | 14.6% |
| F | 3,767 | 2.9% |
| G | 1,193 | 0.9% |
The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Walsall at £912 a month as of Jun 2026 — £645 for a one-bedroom home and £940 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £79,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 13.85% 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 WV12, 189 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 98 violent, 8 burglary, 15 vehicle-related and 4 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.
Against the 284,124 residents the 2021 census counted in Walsall, that is 0.67 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.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Cotswold Grove, Willenhall
The 2021 census counted 284,124 residents in Walsall across 112,226 households. 59.8% of those households own their home and 40.0% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

Cotswold Grove, Willenhall sits in Walsall, in the West Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Walsall at 6.4 times median local earnings of £34,980 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 Cotswold Grove, Willenhall house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £79,950, set in 2006. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

£1,367 per square metre, from the 38 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 24 Oct 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.
