In cash terms the typical SK9 2 home went from £64,000 in 1995 to £374,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 169%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 36% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SK9 2 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 2025 (+44.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−28.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SK9 2 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −28.1% | −29.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.8% | −6.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | 0.0% | −3.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
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.
SK9 2 recorded 63 sales in the last twelve months of data. 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 133 a year over the last five. 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.
The rental side of SK9 2
SK9 2 falls under Cheshire East, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £979 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £692 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,603 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Cheshire East
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £374,000 median sold price, £979 a month is £11,748 a year, a gross yield of 3.1%: 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.
How SK9 2 trades
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. Within SK9, this sector trades 12% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

What another bedroom costs in SK
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SK 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 | — | £330,000 | £474,050 (+44%) | £712,500 (+50%) | £1,000,000 (+40%) |
