In cash terms the typical PE2 9 home went from £35,000 in 1995 to £225,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 196%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 17% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

Year-on-year change in the PE2 9 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 (+30.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−16.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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 PE2 9

The year-by-year sales count

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.

Over the last twelve months of data, 44 sales completed in PE2 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 378 sales a year before the financial crisis and 116 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 kind of market PE2 9 is

Only 44 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PE2 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Rents around PE2 9

For renting purposes PE2 9 sits in Peterborough. The ONS average private rent there is £981 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £687 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,509 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

£981 a month is £11,772 a year, which against the £225,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.2%. 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.

37% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.

The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

What another bedroom costs in PE

What homes of each size actually sold for across the PE area, 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.

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the PE area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
