The raw material for this page is 112,679 HM Land Registry entries for the TF postcode area (Telford), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS.

| 1995 | £47,000 | £102,171 | 3,164 |
In cash terms the typical TF home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £235,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 130%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 16% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the TF 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 2003 (+22.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−3.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −3.1% | −5.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −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 detached houses dominate the record here, 38% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £335,000 against £101,000 for a flat, 3.3 times the price.

How many homes change hands in TF
The year-by-year sales count
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.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 2,351 TF 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 4,520 sales a year before the financial crisis and 2,792 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.
What tenants pay around TF
For renting purposes TF sits in Telford and Wrekin, the local authority covering most of the TF area (parts fall under Shropshire, where rents differ). The ONS average private rent there is £856 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £596 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,351, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Telford and Wrekin
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £235,000 median sold price, £856 a month is £10,272 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.
Asked and answered: TF (Telford)
Is TF (Telford) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in TF (Telford)?
Are property prices falling in TF (Telford)?
Are TF prices heading up or down?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 6% over five years in cash but down 16% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.
TF's current homes for sale
Everything above is what homes in TF sold for. The live side of the market holds 600 homes at the moment, listed by 7 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 2% above the TF median sold price.
Of everything listed here, 31% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
- Caldera Road, Hadley, Telford, TF1, Shropshire
- St Davids Close, Malinslee, Telford, TF4, Telford
- Purbeck Dale, Dawley, Telford, TF4, Shropshire
"Under comparable sales" means the asking price sits below what similar homes nearby actually fetched. Treat it as the start of a conversation, never a valuation, and always view the home.

Moving up a bedroom in TF: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the TF area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £250,000 | £344,972 (+38%) | £510,000 (+48%) | £697,500 (+37%) |
| Semi-detached | £179,950 | £207,500 (+15%) | £240,000 (+16%) | £322,000 (+34%) | — |
| Terraced | £160,000 | £173,000 (+8%) | £177,000 (+2%) | £250,000 (+41%) | — |
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.
