How Henwood Road, Wolverhampton prices moved
The chart tracks the median Henwood Road, Wolverhampton house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2025. 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 | £70,000 | £155,433 |
| 2000s | 9 | £165,000 | £300,581 |
| 2010s | 9 | £185,000 | £260,850 |
| 2020s | 3 | £297,500 | £303,967 |
The highest yearly median on record for Henwood Road, Wolverhampton is £299,950 in 2025; the lowest is £70,000 in 1996. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £70,000 to £299,950.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £151,846, so the real change over the whole record is +101.8% — about +2.45% 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: +85.2% in cash against +34.2% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Henwood Road, Wolverhampton 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 | 111 | 48.7% | £205,000 | £23,000 – £520,000 |

Ownership and new build in Henwood Road, Wolverhampton
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 228 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 | 228 | 100.0% | £162,250 |
A further 9 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 Shropshire, 40.2% of 156,548 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 9.4% 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 Shropshire at £817 a month as of Jun 2026 — £603 for a one-bedroom home and £946 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £162,250 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.04% 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 WV6, 99 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 47 violent, 2 burglary, 5 vehicle-related and 5 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.7 times quieter.
Against the 323,606 residents the 2021 census counted in Shropshire, that is 0.31 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 Henwood Road, Wolverhampton
The 2021 census counted 323,606 residents in Shropshire across 139,579 households. 69.5% of those households own their home and 30.5% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
16 state and independent schools have a WV6 postcode: 13 primary, 2 secondary, 1 middle deemed secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Wolverhampton the street ranks 858 of 2560 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £124,950 (+29.9%).

Henwood Road, Wolverhampton sits in Shropshire, in the West Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Shropshire at 8.0 times median local earnings of £34,232 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 Henwood Road, Wolverhampton?

How many homes have sold in Henwood Road, Wolverhampton?

When were Henwood Road, Wolverhampton house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £299,950, set in 2025. 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 Henwood Road, Wolverhampton?
£1,865 per square metre, from the 53 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 22 May 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.
