In cash terms the typical CO6 4 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £438,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 236%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2017, and today's median remains roughly 14% under it: a 2017 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CO6 4 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 (+33.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−23.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CO6 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +4.3% | +1.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.2% | −2.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.0% | −1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.1% | +1.3% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
CO6 4 recorded 41 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 125 sales a year before the financial crisis and 76 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.
The shape of the CO6 4 market
This is a thin market: 41 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. Against the CO6 district median, CO6 4 sits 14% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
The rental side of CO6 4
The local authority for CO6 4 is Babergh, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £972 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £722 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,612 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Babergh
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £438,000 median purchase price, a rent of £972 a month (£11,664 a year) works out at a 2.7% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in CO
Real sold prices by size across the CO 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 | — | £315,000 | £430,000 (+37%) | £625,000 (+45%) | £865,000 (+38%) |

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.
The risers and the fallers

Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
