How Barrington Crescent, Birchington prices moved

The chart tracks the median Barrington Crescent, Birchington house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2012. 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 Barrington Crescent, Birchington is £152,000 in 2012; the lowest is £51,500 in 1995. Across the full 18-year record the cash median has moved from £51,500 to £152,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £114,354, so the real change over the whole record is +98.5% — about +4.12% 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: +84.2% in cash against +37.6% 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.

When were Barrington Crescent, Birchington house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £152,000, set in 2012. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
