In cash terms the typical BH7 6 home went from £49,000 in 1995 to £404,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 279%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2020. The market now sits about 6% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BH7 6 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 2020 (+41.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−16.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +10.7% | +8.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.8% | −1.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.2% | +2.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.1% | +1.2% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
How many homes change hands in BH7 6
Sales per year, counted
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, 32 sales completed in BH7 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 221 sales a year before the financial crisis and 89 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
The rental side of BH7 6
For renting purposes BH7 6 sits in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. The ONS average private rent there is £1,404 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £922 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,092, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £404,000 median sold price, £1,404 a month is £16,848 a year, a gross yield of 4.2%: 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.
How BH7 6 trades
Only 32 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BH7 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Against the BH7 district median, BH7 6 sits 9% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 21% over five years in cash but down 5% after inflation.

What another bedroom costs in BH
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the BH area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £375,000 | £500,000 (+33%) | £744,000 (+49%) | £1,083,250 (+46%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
