In cash terms the typical HX6 2 home went from £34,000 in 1995 to £167,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 127%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2019. The market now sits about 15% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the HX6 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 2003 (+55.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2020 (−17.2%). 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) | +11.9% | +9.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.1% | −0.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.6% | −0.2% |
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.
How many homes change hands in HX6 2
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 40 sales completed in HX6 2. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 205 sales a year before the financial crisis and 107 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 HX6 2 market
This is a thin market: 40 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. 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 HX6 district median, HX6 2 sits 8% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around HX6 2
HX6 2 falls under Calderdale, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £750 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £543 a month here against £1,116 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Calderdale
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £167,800 median sold price, £750 a month is £9,000 a year, a gross yield of 5.4%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

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.
Moving up a bedroom in HX: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the HX 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 | — | £255,000 | £367,500 (+44%) | £510,000 (+39%) | £611,250 (+20%) |
| Semi-detached | £163,000 | £185,000 (+13%) | £240,500 (+30%) | £319,000 (+33%) | £430,000 (+35%) |

| Flat | £101,000 | £137,500 (+36%) | £220,000 (+60%) | — | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
