How Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth prices moved
The chart tracks the median Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 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 | £78,250 | £173,752 |
| 2000s | 1 | £137,500 | £250,484 |
| 2010s | 5 | £270,000 | £380,700 |
| 2020s | 1 | £370,000 | £378,043 |
The highest yearly median on record for Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth is £370,000 in 2025; the lowest is £78,250 in 1997. Across the full 29-year record the cash median has moved from £78,250 to £370,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £165,914, so the real change over the whole record is +127.9% — about +2.98% 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: +19.4% in cash against -13.5% 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 Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Chichester at £1,326 a month as of Jun 2026 — £942 for a one-bedroom home and £1,498 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £225,475 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.06% 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 PO10, 78 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 29 violent, 3 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 2.1 times quieter.
Against the 124,068 residents the 2021 census counted in Chichester, that is 0.63 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.

Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth sits in Chichester, in the South East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Chichester at 12.3 times median local earnings of £33,692 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 Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth?
The median price paid in Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth across every sale on the register is £225,475. 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 Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth?

When were Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £370,000, set in 2025. 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 Kelsey Avenue, Emsworth?
£2,739 per square metre, from the 30 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 7 Nov 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.
