In cash terms the typical PE29 2 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £345,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 165%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2017; the current median sits about 16% below that. Someone who bought at the 2017 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the PE29 2 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 (+42.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−8.6%). 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) | +6.2% | +3.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.3% | −3.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 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 PE29 2
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
PE29 2 recorded 53 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 141 sales a year recently, against 167 a year before 2008. 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.
Rents around PE29 2
The local authority for PE29 2 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 £345,000 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.
What kind of market PE29 2 is
This is a thin market: 53 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. Within PE29, this sector trades 21% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Bedroom by bedroom: PE prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the PE area, straight 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.
