Property Statistics for Woolton, Liverpool
Data last updated: September 2026
Best known as the village where Paul McCartney and John Lennon first met — at the St Peter's Church fete in 1957 — Woolton sits in the south of Liverpool as one of the city's more established residential suburbs. Average property prices sit at just over £304,900, with five-year price growth of 21% suggesting steady long-term demand rather than speculative volatility. Monthly sales volumes of around 25 and an average of 203 days on market point to a balanced, patient market where buyers are selective. For landlords, a gross rental yield of 5.1% is respectable for an area at this price point, with average monthly rents of £1,192. The private rented sector makes up just 11.1% of housing stock, which limits competition but also indicates rental demand is relatively contained. Household incomes average £40,100, 33% hold a degree, and the area carries a low crime rating — factors that tend to support tenant quality and longer tenancies. Semi-detached properties dominate at 46.6% of stock.
