| 1996 | £47,500 | £100,175 | 641 |
| 1995 | £47,200 | £102,606 | 504 |
In cash terms the typical TF1 home went from £47,200 in 1995 to £205,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 100%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 20% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the TF1 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 (+27.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−3.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 37% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £298,500 against £103,000 for a flat, 2.9 times the price.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.4% | −4.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.3% | −4.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
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.
Sales activity in TF1
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.
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.
TF1 recorded 399 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 823 sales a year before the financial crisis and 456 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
Reading the TF1 market
Among the 13 measurable districts of its area, TF1 ranks 11 by median price: towards the affordable end.
What homes rent for around TF1
For renting purposes TF1 sits in Telford and Wrekin. The ONS average private rent there is £856 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £596 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,351 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Telford and Wrekin
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £205,000 median sold price, £856 a month is £10,272 a year, a gross yield of 5.0%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in TF
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the TF area. 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 | — | £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%) | — |
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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
