Marton market report FY4 2, Blackpool
The standing FY4 2 (Marton) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. The raw material for this page is 4,617 HM Land Registry entries for FY4 2 (Blackpool), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS. Valuations, estimates and asking prices appear nowhere in it.
Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: 50 registered 2026 sales put the FY4 2 (Blackpool) median at £165,000, up 11% on five years earlier, with a mean of £180,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £1,680 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 4,617 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
FY4 2 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside FY4 (Blackpool). 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.

FY4 2 sold prices: where the market stands

Price per square metre in FY4 2
The last five years of sales put FY4 2 at roughly £1,680 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.
The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts FY4 2 42% below the country at large.

In cash terms the typical FY4 2 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £165,000 in 2026, roughly 3.5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 61%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2006. The market now sits about 26% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the FY4 2 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 2004 (+32.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−4.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What FY4 2 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.2% | −1.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.2% | −2.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.3% | −1.5% |
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 FY4 2
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
FY4 2 recorded 50 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 214 sales a year before the financial crisis and 110 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.
Reading the FY4 2 market
Only 50 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes FY4 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
The rental side of FY4 2
The local authority for FY4 2 is Blackpool, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £704 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £491 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,028 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Blackpool
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £165,000 median purchase price, a rent of £704 a month (£8,448 a year) works out at a 5.1% 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.

On the market in FY4 today
Turning to what is actually available: 287 homes on the market right now, from 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole FY4 district, not just FY4 2: live asking prices are collected per district.
20% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
- Tewkesbury Avenue, Blackpool, .
- Frederick Street, Blackpool, Blackpool
- Glencross Place, Blackpool, Blackpool
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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
The price of an extra bedroom in FY
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the FY area. 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 | — | £225,000 | £290,995 (+29%) | £420,000 (+44%) | £603,750 (+44%) |
| Semi-detached | £150,000 | £160,000 (+7%) | £182,500 (+14%) | £238,500 (+31%) | £310,000 (+30%) |
| Terraced | £105,275 | £117,500 (+12%) | £130,000 (+11%) | £144,475 (+11%) | £193,500 (+34%) |

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.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
