Algarkirk market report PE20 3, Boston

The standing PE20 3 (Algarkirk) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. This page is built from the public record and nothing else: 2,858 completed sales registered with HM Land Registry in PE20 3 (Boston) since 1995, plus current ONS rental figures. There are no valuations, estimates or asking prices in it.

Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

In short: the typical home in PE20 3 (Boston) sold for £238,000 in 2026, the median of 25 registered sales, up 11% on five years earlier. The mean was £259,300, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,360 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 2,858 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.

PE20 3 is one sector of PE20 (Boston): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

What buyers actually paid in PE20 3

Take the 25 registered 2026 sales in PE20 3 and the middle price, the median, is £238,000. The mean lands at £259,300, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.

Price per square metre in PE20 3

Measured by floor area, the last five years of PE20 3 sales average about £2,360 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so PE20 3 trades 16% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical PE20 3 home went from £40,000 in 1995 to £238,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 174%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 19% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2004 (+36.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−13.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Annualised returns

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.

Transaction volumes

Over the last twelve months of data, 25 sales completed in PE20 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 119 sales a year before the financial crisis and 72 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.

The shape of the PE20 3 market

This is a thin market: 25 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.

The rental side of PE20 3

PE20 3 falls under Boston, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £796 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £597 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,271, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Against the £238,000 median purchase price, a rent of £796 a month (£9,552 a year) works out at a 4.0% 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.

PE20 3 (Algarkirk): the questions that come up

Are PE20 3 prices heading up or down?

The record answers a different question than "what happens next": the median is up 11% over five years in cash but down 13% after inflation. Put the volume chart beside the price chart before drawing conclusions, and allow for the register's lag behind actual completions.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
