In cash terms the typical CA16 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £243,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 124%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2005, and today's median remains roughly 25% under it: a 2005 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CA16 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 (+38.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−16.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 38% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £401,500 against £90,000 for a flat, 4.5 times the price.

What CA16 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.3% | +0.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.5% | −3.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −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.
The turnover behind the prices
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 last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
CA16 recorded 93 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 131 sales a year before the financial crisis and 84 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
What tenants pay around CA16
The local authority for CA16 is Westmorland and Furness, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £805 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £595 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,305, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Westmorland and Furness
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £243,800 median purchase price, a rent of £805 a month (£9,660 a year) works out at a 4.0% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
What kind of market CA16 is
Only 93 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CA16 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

What another bedroom costs in CA
Real sold prices by size across the CA area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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 | — | £220,000 | £300,000 (+36%) | £430,000 (+43%) | £523,000 (+22%) |
| Semi-detached | £142,000 | £155,000 (+9%) | £205,000 (+32%) | £265,000 (+29%) | £357,500 (+35%) |

| Flat | £92,000 | £124,950 (+36%) | £165,500 (+32%) | — | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
