In cash terms the typical PE32 home went from £53,500 in 1995 to £291,200 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 150%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2023. The market now sits about 23% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the PE32 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 (+35.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 60% of the typed total.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.9% | −5.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.3% | −4.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.1% | −0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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.
How many homes change hands in PE32
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.
The last five years, month by month
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 170 PE32 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 278 sales a year before the financial crisis and 185 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.
Rents around PE32
For renting purposes PE32 sits in King's Lynn and West Norfolk. The ONS average private rent there is £935 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £646 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,502 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, King's Lynn and West Norfolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£935 a month is £11,220 a year, which against the £291,200 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.9%. 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 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £245,000 | £338,000 (+38%) | £482,750 (+43%) | £645,000 (+34%) |
| Semi-detached | £187,000 | £220,000 (+18%) | £257,500 (+17%) | £340,000 (+32%) | £455,000 (+34%) |

| Flat | £120,000 | £155,500 (+30%) | £230,000 (+48%) | — | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
