In cash terms the typical PE15 home went from £42,700 in 1995 to £235,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 154%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 19% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PE15 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 (+32.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −3.9% | −6.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.5% | −4.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.6% | −0.2% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 48% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £297,000 against £112,500 for a flat, 2.6 times the price.

How many homes change hands in PE15
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
PE15 recorded 379 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 875 sales a year before the financial crisis and 431 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.
What tenants pay around PE15
PE15 falls under Fenland, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £835 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £621 a month here against £1,378 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Fenland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £235,500 median sold price, £835 a month is £10,020 a year, a gross yield of 4.3%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in PE: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PE 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 | — | £245,000 | £338,000 (+38%) | £482,750 (+43%) | £645,000 (+34%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
