The standing PE8 6 (Achurch) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 4,258 sales registered with HM Land Registry in PE8 6 (Peterborough) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

Behind the figures sit 4,258 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
A postcode sector like PE8 6 is a single group of streets within PE8 (Peterborough), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

In cash terms the typical PE8 6 home went from £74,000 in 1995 to £310,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 93%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 25% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PE8 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 (+127.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2001 (−42.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.6% | −8.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.9% | −5.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.6% | −1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 35 sales completed in PE8 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 187 sales a year before the financial crisis and 110 a year over the last five. 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.
What kind of market PE8 6 is
This is a thin market: 35 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. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Against the PE8 district median, PE8 6 sits 8% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around PE8 6
For renting purposes PE8 6 sits in North Northamptonshire. The ONS average private rent there is £984 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £677 a month here against £1,518 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, North Northamptonshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £310,000 median sold price, £984 a month is £11,808 a year, a gross yield of 3.8%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £245,000 | £338,000 (+38%) | £482,750 (+43%) | £645,000 (+34%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
