In cash terms the typical BA22 8 home went from £52,000 in 1995 to £258,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 129%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 24% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the BA22 8 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+31.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2015 (−8.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What BA22 8 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.5% | −3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.7% | −4.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.6% | −1.2% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Sales activity in BA22 8
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 64 sales completed in BA22 8. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 168 sales a year recently, against 168 a year before 2008. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.

ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £258,500 median sold price, £990 a month is £11,880 a year, a gross yield of 4.6%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

What another bedroom costs in BA
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the BA area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
