How Castle Lea, Caldicot prices moved
The chart tracks the median Castle Lea, Caldicot house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 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.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 2 | £61,000 | £135,449 |
| 2000s | 4 | £207,500 | £378,004 |
| 2010s | 6 | £201,500 | £284,115 |
| 2020s | 2 | £300,000 | £306,522 |
The highest yearly median on record for Castle Lea, Caldicot is £350,000 in 2025; the lowest is £61,000 in 1997. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £70,000 to £350,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £151,846, so the real change over the whole record is +135.5% — about +3.00% 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: +87.2% in cash against +35.6% 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.

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 Castle Lea, Caldicot 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. Castle Lea, Caldicot 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 104 | 68.9% | £215,000 | £25,000 – £420,000 |
| Semi-detached | 42 | 27.8% | £162,500 | £50,000 – £275,000 |
| Terraced | 4 | 2.6% | £105,000 | £94,950 – £238,250 |
| Flat or maisonette | 1 | 0.7% | £70,000 | £70,000 – £70,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Castle Lea, Caldicot
39 of the sales on record are leasehold and 112 freehold — 25.8% 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 £175,000 and the median freehold sale £213,250 — a gap of +21.9%. 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 | 39 | 25.8% | £175,000 |
| Freehold | 112 | 74.2% | £213,250 |
| New build | 2 | 1.3% | £70,000 |
| Existing home | 149 | 98.7% | £207,500 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -66.3%. 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.

Living in Castle Lea, Caldicot
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Monmouthshire, 46.7% of 44,166 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 7.1% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 497 | 1.1% |
| B | 5,534 | 12.5% |
| C | 14,613 | 33.1% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Monmouthshire at £993 a month as of Jun 2026 — £729 for a one-bedroom home and £1,062 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £206,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.77% 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 NP26, 54 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 26 violent, 3 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 11 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.1 times quieter.
Against the 92,957 residents the 2021 census counted in Monmouthshire, that is 0.58 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.

The neighbourhood around Castle Lea, Caldicot
The 2021 census counted 92,957 residents in Monmouthshire across 40,922 households. 72.3% of those households own their home and 27.7% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

Within Caldicot the street ranks 100 of 338 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £158,500 (+30.3%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,032 per square metre, across 28 of the 151 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 £25,000 to £420,000. 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.
Castle Lea, Caldicot sits in Monmouthshire, in Wales.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Monmouthshire at 8.0 times median local earnings of £38,844 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 Castle Lea, Caldicot?

When were Castle Lea, Caldicot house prices at their highest?

What is the price per square metre in Castle Lea, Caldicot?
£2,032 per square metre, from the 28 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.

The latest sale shown here completed on 2 Apr 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.
