How Cherry Way, Alton prices moved

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Cherry Way, Alton is £252,475 in 2014; the lowest is £89,975 in 1998. Across the full 17-year record the cash median has moved from £89,975 to £252,475.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £186,566, so the real change over the whole record is +94.1% — about +4.23% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +21.4% in cash against -7.9% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Cherry Way, Alton values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Cherry Way, Alton is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Cherry Way, Alton

18 of the sales on record are leasehold and 96 freehold — 15.8% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

The median leasehold sale is £170,750 and the median freehold sale £219,000 — a gap of +28.3%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Basingstoke and Deane at £1,310 a month as of Jun 2026 — £931 for a one-bedroom home and £1,467 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £210,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.49% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of GU34, 63 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 26 violent, 1 burglary, 7 vehicle-related and 7 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.7 times quieter.

Against the 185,154 residents the 2021 census counted in Basingstoke and Deane, that is 0.34 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Section 08

How Cherry Way, Alton compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Cherry Way, Alton sits above that national figure — +33.3%.

Within Alton the street ranks 391 of 498 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £268,000 (-21.6%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,300 per square metre, across 26 of the 114 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £53,950 to £505,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Cherry Way, Alton sits in Basingstoke and Deane, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Basingstoke and Deane at 8.8 times median local earnings of £41,470 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Cherry Way, Alton?

The median price paid in Cherry Way, Alton across every sale on the register is £210,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Cherry Way, Alton?

114 sales are on record for Cherry Way, Alton, the most recent completing on 27 Feb 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Cherry Way, Alton house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +21.4% between 2003 and 2014. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -7.9%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Cherry Way, Alton house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £252,475, set in 2014. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Cherry Way, Alton?

£2,300 per square metre, from the 26 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 27 Feb 2026. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
