How Carters Meadow, Andover prices moved

The chart tracks the median Carters Meadow, Andover house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2025. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Carters Meadow, Andover is £230,000 in 2018; the lowest is £83,950 in 1998. Across the full 29-year record the cash median has moved from £84,700 to £222,750.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £179,589, so the real change over the whole record is +26.7% — about +0.85% 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: +27.3% in cash against -9.3% 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.

What sells here

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

Ownership and new build in Carters Meadow, Andover

143 of the sales on record are leasehold and 54 freehold — 72.6% 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 £160,000 and the median freehold sale £191,475 — a gap of +19.7%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -45.7%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Test Valley at £1,226 a month as of Jun 2026 — £881 for a one-bedroom home and £1,396 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £164,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.92% 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 SP10, 294 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 145 violent, 5 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 39 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.8 times busier.

Against the 130,492 residents the 2021 census counted in Test Valley, that is 2.25 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 Carters Meadow, Andover compares

Carters Meadow, Andover sits in Test Valley, in England.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Test Valley at 9.4 times median local earnings of £38,976 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

When were Carters Meadow, Andover house prices at their highest?
