In cash terms the typical GU14 9 home went from £66,000 in 1995 to £402,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 181%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2017, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2017 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the GU14 9 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 (+18.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2018 (−9.2%). 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) | +4.3% | +1.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.8% | +1.0% |
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.
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.
GU14 9 recorded 60 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 383 sales a year before the financial crisis and 164 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 GU14 9
GU14 9 falls under Rushmoor, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,380 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £975 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,168 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Rushmoor
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £402,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,380 a month (£16,560 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: GU prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the GU area, from the Land Registry record. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £473,000 | £635,000 (+34%) | £910,000 (+43%) | £1,366,000 (+50%) |
