In cash terms the typical PE28 4 home went from £67,500 in 1995 to £354,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 141%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2019, and today's median remains roughly 23% under it: a 2019 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PE28 4 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 (+25.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−25.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What PE28 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.3% | −7.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.2% | −4.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.2% | −0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
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.
PE28 4 recorded 80 sales in the last twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 239 sales a year over the last five years against 189 before the financial crisis. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
Rents around PE28 4
The local authority for PE28 4 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.
Set against the £354,000 median sold price, £1,047 a month is £12,564 a year, a gross yield of 3.5%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

What another bedroom costs in PE
What homes of each size actually sold for across the PE area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
