CA12 5 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside CA12 (Keswick). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

What a square metre costs in CA12 5

In cash terms the typical CA12 5 home went from £66,000 in 1995 to £375,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 161%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 18% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CA12 5 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 2002 (+39.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−17.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +15.4% | +12.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.2% | −1.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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 CA12 5
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 17 CA12 5 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 88 sales a year before the financial crisis and 46 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.
What homes rent for around CA12 5
CA12 5 falls under Cumberland, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £666 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £496 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,071 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Cumberland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£666 a month is £7,992 a year, which against the £375,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 2.1%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
How CA12 5 trades
This is a thin market: 17 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. 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. Within CA12, this sector trades 14% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Moving up a bedroom in CA: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the CA area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
