How Ditton Fields, Cambridge prices moved
The chart tracks the median Ditton Fields, Cambridge house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 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.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 3 | £57,450 | £127,566 |
| 2000s | 7 | £145,000 | £264,147 |
| 2010s | 2 | £217,500 | £306,675 |
| 2020s | 1 | £400,000 | £408,696 |
The highest yearly median on record for Ditton Fields, Cambridge is £400,000 in 2021; the lowest is £47,550 in 1996. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £47,550 to £400,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £103,147, so the real change over the whole record is +390.0% — about +6.56% 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: +83.9% in cash against +51.6% 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.

The most recent sales
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 Ditton Fields, Cambridge values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Ditton Fields, Cambridge 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 | 62 | 46.3% | £159,000 | £39,600 – £560,000 |
| Semi-detached | 55 | 41.0% | £162,000 | £41,000 – £438,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 17 | 12.7% | £105,000 | £50,000 – £233,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Ditton Fields, Cambridge
18 of the sales on record are leasehold and 116 freehold — 13.4% 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 £104,000 and the median freehold sale £162,000 — a gap of +55.8%. 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 | 18 | 13.4% | £104,000 |
| Freehold | 116 | 86.6% | £162,000 |
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.
Section 09
How Ditton Fields, Cambridge compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Ditton Fields, Cambridge sits below that national figure — -2.2%.
Within Cambridge the street ranks 2406 of 2762 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £240,000 (-35.8%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,235 per square metre, across 29 of the 134 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 £39,600 to £560,000. 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Ditton Fields, Cambridge?

How many homes have sold in Ditton Fields, Cambridge?

When were Ditton Fields, Cambridge house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £400,000, 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 Ditton Fields, Cambridge?
£2,235 per square metre, from the 29 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 25 Jul 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.
