Penn Fields property market: common questions

Where is Penn Fields?

Penn Fields is about 2 miles south-west of central Wolverhampton, in West Midlands. Figures for Penn Fields cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.

What is the average house price in Penn Fields?

The median asking price across the 109 homes for sale in Penn Fields is £280,000 (as of 4 October 2026). We quote the median (the middle listing) rather than a mean, because a handful of very expensive homes would pull a mean upwards. Half of listings ask between £220,000 and £350,000. That is 12% above Wolverhampton. Homes that actually sold in Penn Fields went for a median £248,500 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Are house prices in Penn Fields rising or falling?

Rising over the long run, flat over the last year. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Penn Fields is up 63% over the last 10 years and broadly flat over the last 12 months (12 months to January 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Penn Fields cheaper than Wolverhampton?

No: asking prices in Penn Fields are typically higher than across Wolverhampton. The median asking price in Penn Fields is £280,000 against £250k across Wolverhampton: 12% above Wolverhampton. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The premium holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How many homes are for sale in Penn Fields?

109 homes are on the market in Penn Fields right now, up 22% since 31 Aug, 27 of them listed in the last 30 days. Perch counts every listing it tracks across estate agents and portals, refreshed daily.

Are house prices being cut in Penn Fields?

10 listings in Penn Fields had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 9% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Penn Fields?

Of the Penn Fields listings that came off the market in the last 30 days and that we first saw after we began tracking the area, the typical one had been advertised for 94 days. Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.

How much do flats and houses cost in Penn Fields?

The median asking price for a flat in Penn Fields is £84,950. Houses are quoted by type rather than as one figure, because the mix moves the number more than the market does: the largest group on the market is semi-detached houses, at a median £290,000 across 37 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a three-bedroom house in Penn Fields?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Penn Fields is semi-detached houses, at a median asking price of £275,000 across 25 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Penn Fields?

In Penn Fields, homes that sold went for a median £246 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £232 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (109 in Penn Fields), refreshed daily, as of 4 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Penn Fields cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
  • Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Penn Fields since November 2025.
  • Wolverhampton comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Wolverhampton, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
  • Sold figures: HM Land Registry price paid data. Sold prices and sales counts cover the 12 months to January 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to July 2026, with floor areas from EPC certificates (the two run on different pipelines, and the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered). England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
