AbstractWalking is a critical eco-friendly travel mode. Walking accessibility, the ease to reach essential destinations in the walk-in catchment area of a property, may affect this property’s price as good walking accessibility is significant from the perspective of mobility enhancement. Based on 1840 housing units in 380 multi- or high-story residential complexes in Xiamen Island, China, the paper develops a set of hedonic price models (one pre-specified and three Box-Cox transformed functional forms) to estimate, whether and to what extent, walking accessibility offers price premiums. It finds the followings: walking accessibility measures are highly robust and significant in all model specifications; walking accessibility contributes to explaining the variations in housing prices; walking accessibility to education and commercial facilities exerts positive effects on housing prices; walking accessibility to comprehensive hospitals affects housing prices negatively.
