In cash terms the typical TF5 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £325,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 149%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 11% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the TF5 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 (+34.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.7%). 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 detached houses dominate the record here, 58% of the typed total. In 2007, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £230,500 against £91,800 for a flat, 2.5 times the price.

What TF5 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +10.2% | +7.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.3% | −2.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.3% | +1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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.
Sales activity in TF5
The year-by-year sales count
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 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.
TF5 recorded 65 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 156 sales a year before the financial crisis and 56 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.
How TF5 trades
This is a thin market: 65 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. 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. TF5 sits 2 of 13 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.
What tenants pay around TF5
TF5 falls under Telford and Wrekin, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £856 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
Against the £325,000 median purchase price, a rent of £856 a month (£10,272 a year) works out at a 3.2% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

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%) | — |
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.
