In cash terms the typical PR3 5 home went from £80,000 in 1995 to £380,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 119%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2005. The market now sits about 19% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the PR3 5 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 1996 (+35.5% on the year before); the weakest, 1997 (−20.0%). 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) | +15.2% | +12.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.8% | 0.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.7% | −1.1% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
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 register shows 29 PR3 5 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 130 sales a year over the last five years against 48 before the financial crisis. 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.
Rents around PR3 5
For renting purposes PR3 5 sits in Preston. The ONS average private rent there is £782 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £573 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,240, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Preston
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £380,000 median purchase price, a rent of £782 a month (£9,384 a year) works out at a 2.5% 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 PR3 5 is
This is a thin market: 29 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 PR3 district median, PR3 5 sits 46% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

What another bedroom costs in PR
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PR area. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £243,000 | £325,000 (+34%) | £475,000 (+46%) | £654,500 (+38%) |
