PR9 7 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside PR9 (Southport). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical PR9 7 home went from £51,000 in 1995 to £227,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 105%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2008, and today's median remains roughly 10% under it: a 2008 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PR9 7 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 2004 (+35.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−11.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What PR9 7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +9.4% | +6.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +5.2% | +0.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.2% | −0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 55 sales completed in PR9 7. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 246 sales a year before the financial crisis and 139 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.
The shape of the PR9 7 market
Only 55 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PR9 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the PR9 district median, PR9 7 sits 14% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
Rents around PR9 7
PR9 7 falls under Sefton, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £928 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £616 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,400, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Sefton
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £227,500 median purchase price, a rent of £928 a month (£11,136 a year) works out at a 4.9% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in PR
Real sold prices by size across the PR 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 | — | £243,000 | £325,000 (+34%) | £475,000 (+46%) | £654,500 (+38%) |
| Semi-detached | £164,975 | £189,950 (+15%) | £228,000 (+20%) | £295,000 (+29%) | £410,000 (+39%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
