Carlisle market report CA3 9

The standing CA3 9 (Carlisle) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 5,179 registered sales in CA3 9 (Carlisle) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

In short: the typical home in CA3 9 (Carlisle) sold for £173,500 in 2026, the median of 52 registered sales, up 2% on five years earlier. The mean was £209,200, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,100 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 5,179 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.

A postcode sector like CA3 9 is a single group of streets within CA3 (Carlisle), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

What CA3 9 homes really sell for

In the CA3 9 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £173,500, from 52 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £209,200, sitting well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.

Price per square metre in CA3 9

Measured by floor area, the last five years of CA3 9 sales average about £2,100 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, CA3 9 runs 39% below it.

In cash terms the typical CA3 9 home went from £46,000 in 1995 to £173,500 in 2026, roughly 3.8 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 74%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 32% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+43.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2001 (−19.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

What CA3 9 has returned, per year

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.

Transaction volumes

The register shows 52 CA3 9 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 203 sales a year before the financial crisis and 123 a year over the last five. 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 rental side of CA3 9

CA3 9 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.

£666 a month is £7,992 a year, which against the £173,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.6%. 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.

Reading the CA3 9 market

Only 52 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CA3 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within CA3, this sector trades 16% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Common questions on CA3 9 (Carlisle)

Where do CA3 9 prices go next?

That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is roughly flat over five years in cash but down 19% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
