Middleton market report M24 1, Manchester
The M24 1 (Middleton) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 5,234 sales registered with HM Land Registry in M24 1 (Manchester) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 33 registered 2026 sales put the M24 1 (Manchester) median at £275,000, up 12% on five years earlier, with a mean of £295,900, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,900 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 5,234 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
A postcode sector like M24 1 is a single group of streets within M24 (Manchester), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

In cash terms the typical M24 1 home went from £55,000 in 1995 to £275,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 130%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 11% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the M24 1 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 (+33.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−20.8%). 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) | −3.1% | −5.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.3% | −2.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.8% | +1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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 M24 1
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, 33 sales completed in M24 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 192 sales a year before the financial crisis and 130 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
How M24 1 trades
This is a thin market: 33 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. Against the M24 district median, M24 1 sits 25% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
The rental side of M24 1
M24 1 falls under Rochdale, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £829 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £603 a month here against £1,338 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Rochdale
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£829 a month is £9,948 a year, which against the £275,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.6%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

Moving up a bedroom in M: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the M area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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 | — | £282,000 | £395,000 (+40%) | £625,000 (+58%) | £810,000 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £200,000 | £240,000 (+20%) | £310,000 (+29%) | £450,000 (+45%) | £635,000 (+41%) |

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.

Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
