How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lower Corniche | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |

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 CT21 5, over the last five years (720 sales):
- What sells: 26% detached, 26% flats, 20% semi-detached, 20% terraced, 8% other.

- 104 sales in the last twelve months, against 209 in the same twelve months five years ago.
