| 1996 | £62,000 | £130,755 | 164 |
| 1995 | £61,500 | £133,692 | 201 |
In cash terms the typical EN9 3 home went from £61,500 in 1995 to £385,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 188%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2017; the current median sits about 17% below that. Someone who bought at the 2017 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the EN9 3 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 (+26.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−10.8%). 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) | −3.7% | −6.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 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.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
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.
EN9 3 recorded 59 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 300 sales a year before the financial crisis and 114 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.
Reading the EN9 3 market
This is a thin market: 59 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.
Rents around EN9 3
The local authority for EN9 3 is Epping Forest, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,842 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,228 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,879, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Epping Forest
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,842 a month is £22,104 a year, which against the £385,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.7%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: EN prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the EN area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £525,000 | £690,000 (+31%) | £975,000 (+41%) | £1,359,000 (+39%) |
| Semi-detached | £402,625 | £470,000 (+17%) | £555,000 (+18%) | £720,000 (+30%) | £971,000 (+35%) |
| Terraced | £361,750 | £424,000 (+17%) | £480,000 (+13%) | £610,000 (+27%) | £830,000 (+36%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
