In cash terms the typical PE26 1 home went from £52,800 in 1995 to £286,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 150%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2024. 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 PE26 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 2003 (+27.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−16.6%). 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) | +13.0% | +10.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.3% | −0.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.8% |
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.
Sales activity in PE26 1
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 34 sales completed in PE26 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 151 sales a year before the financial crisis and 104 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 PE26 1
PE26 1 falls under Huntingdonshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,047 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £737 a month here against £1,684 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Huntingdonshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,047 a month is £12,564 a year, which against the £286,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.4%. 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.
Reading the PE26 1 market
Only 34 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PE26 1 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.

If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
What you could buy in PE26 now
This is what you could actually buy today: 62 homes currently on the market from 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole PE26 district, not just PE26 1: live asking prices are collected per district.
54% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
"Under comparable sales" means the asking price sits below what similar homes nearby actually fetched. Treat it as the start of a conversation, never a valuation, and always view the home.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
What another bedroom costs in PE
Real sold prices by size across the PE area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.

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