In cash terms the typical CT3 home went from £57,000 in 1995 to £295,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 138%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 34% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CT3 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 2022 (+30.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−15.8%). 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) | −4.8% | −7.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 34% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £490,000 against £142,000 for a flat, 3.5 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
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.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 235 sales completed in CT3. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 290 sales a year recently, against 329 a year before 2008. 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.
Rents around CT3
The local authority for CT3 is Dover, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,012 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
Against the £295,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,012 a month (£12,144 a year) works out at a 4.1% 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.
How CT3 trades
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.

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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £350,000 | £465,000 (+33%) | £665,000 (+43%) | £930,000 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £275,000 | £300,000 (+9%) | £350,000 (+17%) | £460,000 (+31%) | £575,000 (+25%) |

| Flat | £150,000 | £220,000 (+47%) | £300,000 (+36%) | £390,000 (+30%) | — |
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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
