In cash terms the typical PR6 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £237,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 143%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs.
Year-on-year change in the PR6 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 (+32.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2000 (−8.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | +10.5% | +7.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.6% | −0.3% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +4.7% | +0.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 39% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £380,000 against £158,000 for a flat, 2.4 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
PR6 recorded 405 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 858 sales a year before the financial crisis and 450 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.
What homes rent for around PR6
The local authority for PR6 is Chorley, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £779 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £584 a month here against £1,301 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Chorley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £237,500 median sold price, £779 a month is £9,348 a year, a gross yield of 3.9%: 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.

Month by month: when PR6 sells
March is when PR6 changes hands most (11.2% of the 2,681 sales dated 2021 to 2025); December is the quiet end at 6.8%. The gap between the two is wide enough to plan around: completion follows the agreed sale by weeks, so the busiest month for completions points to deals done earlier, and a seller wanting several bidders should list ahead of it.

Moving up a bedroom in PR: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PR area. 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 | £215,000 | £250,000 (+16%) | £289,995 (+16%) | £357,000 (+23%) | £450,000 (+26%) |
| Semi-detached | £165,000 | £183,000 (+11%) | £210,000 (+15%) | £253,375 (+21%) | £325,000 (+28%) |
| Terraced | £130,000 | £138,000 (+6%) | £152,500 (+11%) | £190,000 (+25%) | £231,250 (+22%) |
| Flat | £90,000 | £115,000 (+28%) | £148,000 (+29%) | £205,000 (+39%) | £270,000 (+32%) |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
