In cash terms the typical RG14 home went from £65,000 in 1995 to £355,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 151%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2017, and today's median remains roughly 19% under it: a 2017 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the RG14 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 (+21.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−6.7%). 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 years (since 2025) | +1.4% | −0.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.1% | −2.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.9% | −1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of flats dominate the record here, 30% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £655,000 against £210,000 for a flat, 3.1 times the price.

How many homes change hands in RG14
How many homes change hands
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
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
The register shows 579 RG14 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,012 sales a year before the financial crisis and 644 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 rental side of RG14
RG14 falls under West Berkshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,290 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £902 a month here against £2,121 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, West Berkshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £355,000 median sold price, £1,290 a month is £15,480 a year, a gross yield of 4.4%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in RG: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the RG area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

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