In the TF8 7 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £290,000, from 11 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £396,900, sitting well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.
What a square metre costs in TF8 7

In cash terms the typical TF8 7 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £290,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 122%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 20% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the TF8 7 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 (+47.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−19.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.5% | +3.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.7% | −3.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
TF8 7 recorded 11 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 75 sales a year before the financial crisis and 54 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
How TF8 7 trades
Only 11 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TF8 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.
What tenants pay around TF8 7
TF8 7 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.
Set against the £290,000 median sold price, £856 a month is £10,272 a year, a gross yield of 3.5%: 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.

On the market in TF8 today
This is what you could actually buy today: 12 homes currently on the market from 2 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole TF8 district, not just TF8 7: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 10% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Bedroom by bedroom: TF prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the TF 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.
| 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%) | — |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
