In cash terms the typical GU14 7 home went from £72,500 in 1995 to £250,000 in 2026, roughly 3.4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 59%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2017; the current median sits about 38% 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 GU14 7 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 2002 (+26.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−15.0%). 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) | −15.0% | −17.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −4.0% | −8.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.8% | −4.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.1% | −1.6% |
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.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 43 sales completed in GU14 7. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 136 sales a year recently, against 151 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.
What kind of market GU14 7 is
Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes GU14 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Against the GU14 district median, GU14 7 sits 32% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around GU14 7
The local authority for GU14 7 is Rushmoor, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,380 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £975 a month here against £2,168 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Rushmoor
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £250,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,380 a month (£16,560 a year) works out at a 6.6% 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.

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 GU
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the GU area. 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 | — | £473,000 | £635,000 (+34%) | £910,000 (+43%) | £1,366,000 (+50%) |
| Semi-detached | £340,000 | £415,000 (+22%) | £486,000 (+17%) | £630,000 (+30%) | £885,000 (+40%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
