How Mount Pleasant, Bury prices moved
The chart tracks the median Mount Pleasant, Bury house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2022. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £51,500 | £114,354 |
| 2000s | 7 | £146,000 | £265,969 |
| 2010s | 3 | £172,000 | £242,520 |
| 2020s | 1 | £142,500 | £145,598 |
The highest yearly median on record for Mount Pleasant, Bury is £185,000 in 2018; the lowest is £49,000 in 1995. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £49,000 to £142,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £108,803, so the real change over the whole record is +51.7% — about +1.56% 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: -8.1% in cash against -38.7% 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 Mount Pleasant, Bury 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. Mount Pleasant, Bury is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 98 | 66.7% | £138,500 | £17,331 – £340,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 32 | 21.8% | £95,000 | £38,250 – £170,000 |

| Detached | 3 | 2.0% | £125,000 | £105,000 – £176,500 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Mount Pleasant, Bury
61 of the sales on record are leasehold and 86 freehold — 41.5% 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 £100,000 and the median freehold sale £142,500 — a gap of +42.5%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 61 | 41.5% | £100,000 |
| Freehold | 86 | 58.5% | £142,500 |
A further 4 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Bury, 38.3% of 91,222 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.6% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Bury at £968 a month as of Jun 2026 — £685 for a one-bedroom home and £1,063 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £125,750 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.24% 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.
No street-level crime was published for BL9 in Jun 2026 by Greater Manchester. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

Within Bury the street ranks 776 of 1374 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £116,500 (+7.9%).

When were Mount Pleasant, Bury house prices at their highest?

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 13 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.
