How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Towergate | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector CH1 4 | £150,000 | £159,000 -6% since | £132,250 +13% since | £149,995 +0% since | £120,000 +25% since |
| Chester | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £155,000 |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in CH1 4, over the last five years (788 sales):
- What sells: 40% flats, 34% terraced, 16% semi-detached, 6% other, 4% detached.
- 44% sold leasehold, and 1% were new builds.
- 136 sales in the last twelve months, against 187 in the same twelve months five years ago.
