How Queen Street, Emsworth prices moved

The chart tracks the median Queen Street, Emsworth 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.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Queen Street, Emsworth is £700,000 in 2022; the lowest is £40,750 in 1995. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £40,750 to £700,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £90,484, so the real change over the whole record is +796.3% — about +8.46% 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: +191.7% in cash against +94.4% 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 Queen Street, Emsworth 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. Queen Street, Emsworth 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 Queen Street, Emsworth

34 of the sales on record are leasehold and 63 freehold — 35.1% 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 £111,000 and the median freehold sale £250,000 — a gap of +125.2%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

New build88.2%£152,500
Existing home8991.8%£200,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -23.8%. 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 10 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 Chichester, 44.4% of 65,469 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 7.9% 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 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 £190,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.37% 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.

Section 09

How Queen Street, Emsworth compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Queen Street, Emsworth sits above that national figure — +20.6%.

Within Emsworth the street ranks 230 of 281 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £247,000 (-23.1%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,133 per square metre, across 30 of the 97 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 £18,000 to £1,700,000. 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.

Queen Street, 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. 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 Queen Street, Emsworth?

How many homes have sold in Queen Street, Emsworth?

97 sales are on record for Queen Street, Emsworth, the most recent completing on 22 Jun 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +191.7% between 2007 and 2022. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +94.4%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Queen Street, Emsworth house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £700,000, set in 2022. 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 Queen Street, Emsworth?

£2,133 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.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 22 Jun 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.
