How Eaves Lane, Chorley prices moved

The chart tracks the median Eaves Lane, Chorley house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2024. 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 Eaves Lane, Chorley is £136,000 in 2022; the lowest is £26,000 in 1996. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £31,500 to £135,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £69,945, so the real change over the whole record is +103.1% — about +2.47% 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: +50.0% in cash against +10.0% 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.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Eaves Lane, Chorley is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Eaves Lane, Chorley

212 of the sales on record are leasehold and 74 freehold — 74.1% 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 £80,000 and the median freehold sale £79,000 — a gap of -1.2%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid

Freehold7425.9%£79,000
New build10.3%£39,950
Existing home28599.7%£80,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -50.1%. 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.

A further 59 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 Blackburn with Darwen, 39.5% of 76,679 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.6% 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 Blackburn with Darwen at £712 a month as of Jun 2026 — £533 for a one-bedroom home and £779 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £80,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 10.68% 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 PR6, 82 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 25 violent, 5 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 15 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.0 times quieter.

Against the 154,738 residents the 2021 census counted in Blackburn with Darwen, that is 0.53 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 Eaves Lane, Chorley compares

Within Chorley the street ranks 1130 of 1305 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £129,950 (-38.4%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £930 per square metre, across 79 of the 286 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 £10,000 to £185,000. 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.

Eaves Lane, Chorley sits in Blackburn with Darwen, in the North West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Blackburn with Darwen at 4.7 times median local earnings of £36,223 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.
