Wingham market report CT3 1, Canterbury
The standing CT3 1 (Wingham) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 3,060 sales registered with HM Land Registry in CT3 1 (Canterbury) 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: the typical home in CT3 1 (Canterbury) sold for £342,600 in 2026, the median of 32 registered sales, down 20% on five years earlier. The mean was £437,300, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,200 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 3,060 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.
CT3 1 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside CT3 (Canterbury). 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 CT3 1 home went from £80,000 in 1995 to £342,600 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 97%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 44% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CT3 1 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 (+49.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−19.4%). 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) | −19.4% | −21.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −4.4% | −8.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +0.5% | −2.8% |
| 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.
How many homes change hands in CT3 1
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.
CT3 1 recorded 32 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 112 sales a year before the financial crisis and 77 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 shape of the CT3 1 market
Only 32 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CT3 1 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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 CT3 district median, CT3 1 sits 16% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around CT3 1
For renting purposes CT3 1 sits in Dover. The ONS average private rent there is £1,012 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £722 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,649, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Dover
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,012 a month is £12,144 a year, which against the £342,600 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.5%. 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.

CT3's current homes for sale
Turning to what is actually available: 21 homes on the market right now, from 4 agents publishing to HomesIndex.

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.

Bedroom by bedroom: CT prices by size
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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £350,000 | £465,000 (+33%) | £665,000 (+43%) | £930,000 (+40%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

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.
