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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shackleton Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector ME5 7 | £280,000 | £222,000 +26% since | £175,500 +60% since | £124,000 +126% since | £125,000 +124% 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 ME5 7, over the last five years (1,028 sales):
- What sells: 58% terraced, 17% semi-detached, 13% flats, 10% detached, 3% other.
- 14% sold leasehold, and 2% were new builds.
- 151 sales in the last twelve months, against 247 in the same twelve months five years ago.
