How Friars Avenue, Brentwood prices moved

The chart tracks the median Friars Avenue, Brentwood house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2021. 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 Friars Avenue, Brentwood is £877,500 in 2021; the lowest is £150,000 in 1995. Across the full 27-year record the cash median has moved from £150,000 to £877,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £333,071, so the real change over the whole record is +232.9% — about +4.73% 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: +77.3% in cash against +46.1% 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.

Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

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 Friars Avenue, Brentwood 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. Friars Avenue, Brentwood is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Friars Avenue, Brentwood

2 of the sales on record are leasehold and 135 freehold — 1.5% 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 £432,500 and the median freehold sale £427,000 — a gap of -1.3%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 3 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 Brentwood at £1,615 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,103 for a one-bedroom home and £1,711 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £427,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.54% 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 CM15, 44 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 19 violent, 3 burglary, 3 vehicle-related and 3 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.8 times quieter.

Against the 77,047 residents the 2021 census counted in Brentwood, that is 0.57 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.

How Friars Avenue, Brentwood compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Friars Avenue, Brentwood sits above that national figure — +171.1%.

Within Brentwood the street ranks 205 of 765 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £255,000 (+67.5%).

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.

The full range on record runs from £100,000 to £1,350,000. 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.

Friars Avenue, Brentwood sits in Brentwood, in the East of England.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Brentwood at 12.9 times median local earnings of £38,821 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Friars Avenue, Brentwood?

The median price paid in Friars Avenue, Brentwood across every sale on the register is £427,000. 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 Friars Avenue, Brentwood?

137 sales are on record for Friars Avenue, Brentwood, the most recent completing on 10 Dec 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Friars Avenue, Brentwood house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +77.3% between 2011 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +46.1%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Friars Avenue, Brentwood house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £877,500, set in 2021. 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 Friars Avenue, Brentwood?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 10 Dec 2025. 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.
