In cash terms the typical RG42 5 home went from £105,000 in 1995 to £557,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 144%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 23% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the RG42 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 2000 (+53.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2007 (−23.6%). 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) | −5.8% | −8.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.2% | −2.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.6% | −1.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
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.
How many homes change hands in RG42 5
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.
The register shows 12 RG42 5 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 56 sales a year over the last five years against 29 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.
What tenants pay around RG42 5
For renting purposes RG42 5 sits in Bracknell Forest. The ONS average private rent there is £1,490 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £1,087 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,421 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Bracknell Forest
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,490 a month is £17,880 a year, which against the £557,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.2%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
Reading the RG42 5 market
Only 12 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes RG42 5 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within RG42, this sector trades 20% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

What another bedroom costs in RG
What homes of each size actually sold for across the RG area, 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 | — | £444,995 | £595,000 (+34%) | £830,000 (+39%) | £1,200,000 (+45%) |
| Semi-detached | £310,000 | £385,000 (+24%) | £455,500 (+18%) | £579,500 (+27%) | £784,000 (+35%) |

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.
