Carlisle market report CA2 6
The CA2 6 (Carlisle) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 5,145 sales registered with HM Land Registry in CA2 6 (Carlisle) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 72 registered 2026 sales put the CA2 6 (Carlisle) median at £167,000, up 28% on five years earlier, with a mean of £183,500, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £1,910 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 5,145 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
CA2 6 is one sector of CA2 (Carlisle): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

| 1996 | £39,500 | £83,304 | 111 |
| 1995 | £41,800 | £90,867 | 84 |
In cash terms the typical CA2 6 home went from £41,800 in 1995 to £167,000 in 2026, roughly 4.0 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 84%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2006, and today's median remains roughly 13% under it: a 2006 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CA2 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 2003 (+35.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−7.4%). 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) | +9.2% | +6.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +5.1% | +0.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.9% | −0.5% |
| 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.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 72 sales completed in CA2 6. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 172 sales a year recently, against 181 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.
The shape of the CA2 6 market
Within CA2, this sector trades 11% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
What tenants pay around CA2 6
For renting purposes CA2 6 sits in Cumberland. The ONS average private rent there is £666 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £496 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,071, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
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 £167,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.8%. 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.

What is for sale in CA2 right now
This is what you could actually buy today: 59 homes currently on the market from 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole CA2 district, not just CA2 6: live asking prices are collected per district.

The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
The price of an extra bedroom in CA
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CA 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 | — | £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%) |
| Terraced | £105,000 | £115,000 (+10%) | £132,500 (+15%) | £184,000 (+39%) | £255,000 (+39%) |
| Flat | £92,000 | £124,950 (+36%) | £165,500 (+32%) | — | — |
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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
