In cash terms the typical CT12 4 home went from £54,700 in 1995 to £376,500 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 217%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CT12 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 2000 (+38.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−13.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +19.5% | +16.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.5% | −3.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.7% | +1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
CT12 4 recorded 28 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 79 sales a year before the financial crisis and 54 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 CT12 4
CT12 4 falls under Thanet, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,109 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £766 a month here against £1,669 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Thanet
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £376,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,109 a month (£13,308 a year) works out at a 3.5% 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 shape of the CT12 4 market
This is a thin market: 28 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the CT12 district median, CT12 4 sits 28% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

What another bedroom costs in CT
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CT area. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
