In cash terms the typical CT4 5 home went from £78,000 in 1995 to £437,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 158%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2018; the current median sits about 17% below that. Someone who bought at the 2018 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the CT4 5 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 1998 (+60.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−26.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −10.7% | −12.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.1% | −2.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.2% | −0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
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.
How many homes change hands in CT4 5
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 12 sales completed in CT4 5. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 66 sales a year before the financial crisis and 41 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 CT4 5
The local authority for CT4 5 is Canterbury, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,276 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £872 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,900 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Canterbury
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,276 a month is £15,312 a year, which against the £437,500 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.
The shape of the CT4 5 market
This is a thin market: 12 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. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

CT4's current homes for sale
This is what you could actually buy today: 31 homes currently on the market from 5 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole CT4 district, not just CT4 5: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 55% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.

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
Real sold prices by size across the CT 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.
| 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%) |
| Terraced | £240,000 | £257,250 (+7%) | £300,000 (+17%) | £389,497 (+30%) | £520,000 (+34%) |
| 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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
