In cash terms the typical PE27 6 home went from £55,000 in 1995 to £352,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 195%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2018, and today's median remains roughly 14% under it: a 2018 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PE27 6 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 (+29.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What PE27 6 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +8.5% | +5.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.0% | −2.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.1% | −0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 24 PE27 6 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 94 sales a year before the financial crisis and 59 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 PE27 6
The local authority for PE27 6 is Huntingdonshire, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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 £352,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.6%. 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.
The shape of the PE27 6 market
Only 24 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PE27 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the PE27 district median, PE27 6 sits 14% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

What is for sale in PE27 right now
The live side of the market holds 6 homes at the moment, listed by 2 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole PE27 district, not just PE27 6: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 33% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
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.

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.

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.
