CA2 7 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside CA2 (Carlisle). 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.

In cash terms the typical CA2 7 home went from £42,600 in 1995 to £154,200 in 2026, roughly 3.6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 67%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 27% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CA2 7 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 (+37.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−9.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CA2 7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.8% | +0.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.7% | −1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.9% | −0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.7% | −1.1% |
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
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 71 CA2 7 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 270 sales a year before the financial crisis and 168 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 CA2 7
CA2 7 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 £154,200 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.2%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: CA prices by size
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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £220,000 | £300,000 (+36%) | £430,000 (+43%) | £523,000 (+22%) |
