How Wescott Road, Wokingham prices moved
The chart tracks the median Wescott Road, Wokingham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £88,975 | £197,567 |
| 2000s | 7 | £228,475 | £416,214 |
| 2010s | 3 | £338,175 | £476,827 |
| 2020s | 1 | £552,500 | £564,511 |
The highest yearly median on record for Wescott Road, Wokingham is £552,500 in 2024; the lowest is £78,050 in 1995. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £78,050 to £552,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £173,308, so the real change over the whole record is +235.5% — about +4.26% 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: +130.2% in cash against +51.7% 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 Wescott Road, Wokingham 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. Wescott Road, Wokingham 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 | 77 | 58.8% | £233,000 | £40,000 – £605,000 |
| Terraced | 40 | 30.5% | £236,000 | £67,950 – £450,000 |
| Detached | 12 | 9.2% | £135,000 | £83,000 – £445,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Wescott Road, Wokingham
2 of the sales on record are leasehold and 129 freehold — 1.5% 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 £213,000 and the median freehold sale £233,000 — a gap of +9.4%. 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 | 2 | 1.5% | £213,000 |
| Freehold | 129 | 98.5% | £233,000 |
A further 3 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Bracknell Forest, 55.8% of 59,770 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 1.6% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Bracknell Forest at £1,471 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,073 for a one-bedroom home and £1,652 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £232,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.59% 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 RG40, 74 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 26 violent, 1 burglary, 3 vehicle-related and 6 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.3 times quieter.
Against the 124,607 residents the 2021 census counted in Bracknell Forest, that is 0.59 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.

How Wescott Road, Wokingham compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Wescott Road, Wokingham sits above that national figure — +47.6%.
Within Wokingham the street ranks 625 of 801 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £285,998 (-18.7%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,669 per square metre, across 34 of the 131 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 £40,000 to £605,000. 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.
Wescott Road, Wokingham sits in Bracknell Forest, in the South East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Bracknell Forest at 9.1 times median local earnings of £44,883 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 Wescott Road, Wokingham?
The median price paid in Wescott Road, Wokingham across every sale on the register is £232,500. 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 Wescott Road, Wokingham?
131 sales are on record for Wescott Road, Wokingham, the most recent completing on 19 Jun 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Wescott Road, Wokingham house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +130.2% between 2010 and 2024. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +51.7%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Wescott Road, Wokingham house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £552,500, set in 2024. 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 Wescott Road, Wokingham?
£3,669 per square metre, from the 34 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 19 Jun 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.
