Alwalton market report PE7 3, Peterborough
The PE7 3 (Alwalton) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. The raw material for this page is 9,954 HM Land Registry entries for PE7 3 (Peterborough), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS. Valuations, estimates and asking prices appear nowhere in it.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 84 registered 2026 sales put the PE7 3 (Peterborough) median at £281,000, up 15% on five years earlier, with a mean of £330,500, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,010 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 9,954 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
PE7 3 is one sector of PE7 (Peterborough): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

The going rate for a home in PE7 3
The PE7 3 median stands at £281,000 for 2026, built from 84 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £330,500, well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.
Price per square metre in PE7 3
Averaged across five years of sales, floor space in PE7 3 costs about £3,010 per square metre. Each sale's Energy Performance Certificate supplies the floor area, and pricing by the metre is what lets flats and houses share one scale.

In cash terms the typical PE7 3 home went from £44,000 in 1995 to £281,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 194%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2020. The market now sits about 13% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the PE7 3 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 (+26.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−6.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What PE7 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +0.4% | −2.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −2.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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 PE7 3
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.
PE7 3 recorded 84 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 446 sales a year before the financial crisis and 213 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.
The rental side of PE7 3
PE7 3 falls under Huntingdonshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,047 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £737 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,684, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Huntingdonshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £281,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,047 a month (£12,564 a year) works out at a 4.5% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
What kind of market PE7 3 is
Against the PE7 district median, PE7 3 sits 12% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

No honest page predicts prices, so this one sticks to the record: the median is up 15% over five years in cash but down 9% after inflation.

What you could buy in PE7 now
This is what you could actually buy today: 254 homes currently on the market from 11 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole PE7 district, not just PE7 3: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 40% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
- Blenheim Way, Yaxley, PETERBOROUGH
- March Road, Whittlesey, Peterborough
- Tern Road, Hampton Hargate, Peterborough
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.
Bedroom by bedroom: PE prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the PE area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| 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%) |
| Terraced | £170,000 | £195,000 (+15%) | £225,000 (+15%) | £300,000 (+33%) | £465,000 (+55%) |
| 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.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
