In cash terms the typical HP6 6 home went from £129,100 in 1995 to £680,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 142%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 23% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the HP6 6 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 2022 (+20.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−14.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What HP6 6 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −10.8% | −12.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.8% |
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
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 31 HP6 6 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 160 sales a year before the financial crisis and 94 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.
How HP6 6 trades
Only 31 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes HP6 6 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.
What homes rent for around HP6 6
For renting purposes HP6 6 sits in Buckinghamshire. The ONS average private rent there is £1,477 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,036 a month here against £2,364 for four or more bedrooms.

ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £680,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,477 a month (£17,724 a year) works out at a 2.6% 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.

Moving up a bedroom in HP: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the HP 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 | — | £470,500 | £632,250 (+34%) | £930,000 (+47%) | £1,395,000 (+50%) |
| Semi-detached | £315,000 | £396,000 (+26%) | £480,000 (+21%) | £636,250 (+33%) | £842,500 (+32%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

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