In cash terms the typical TF6 home went from £63,500 in 1995 to £297,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 116%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2004. The market now sits about 33% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the TF6 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 2010 (+34.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−30.9%). 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.

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.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
TF6 recorded 94 sales in the last twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 144 sales a year over the last five years against 66 before the financial crisis. 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 TF6 market
This is a thin market: 94 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. TF6 sits 3 of 13 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.
What homes rent for around TF6
The local authority for TF6 is Telford and Wrekin, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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 £297,800 median purchase price, a rent of £856 a month (£10,272 a year) works out at a 3.4% 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.

Will TF6 prices rise from here?

Everything above is what homes in TF6 sold for. This is what you could actually buy today: 10 homes currently on the market from 3 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 28% above the TF6 median sold price.

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.
