How this area has changed
Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rake Lane | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector CH45 5 | £260,000 | £195,000 +33% since | £165,500 +57% since | £125,000 +108% since | £135,000 +93% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in CH45 5, over the last five years (374 sales):
- What sells: 42% semi-detached, 41% terraced, 11% flats, 3% detached, 3% other.
- 13% sold leasehold, and 2% were new builds.
- 64 sales in the last twelve months, against 92 in the same twelve months five years ago.
