In cash terms the typical PE19 2 home went from £46,500 in 1995 to £260,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 157%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 23% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the PE19 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 2002 (+46.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.0%). 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) | −10.2% | −12.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.3% | −3.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.7% | −1.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
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.
Sales activity in PE19 2
Sales per year, counted
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.
PE19 2 recorded 74 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 318 sales a year before the financial crisis and 162 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 PE19 2
The local authority for PE19 2 is Huntingdonshire, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,047 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £737 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,684 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Huntingdonshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £260,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,047 a month (£12,564 a year) works out at a 4.8% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in PE
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PE area. 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.
