How Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe prices moved

The chart tracks the median Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2013. 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 Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe is £97,000 in 2006; the lowest is £34,725 in 1999. Across the full 17-year record the cash median has moved from £38,000 to £92,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £80,571, so the real change over the whole record is +67.4% — about +3.27% 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: +44.5% in cash against +11.5% 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.

What sells here

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

Ownership and new build in Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe

4 of the sales on record are leasehold and 104 freehold — 3.7% 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 £55,250 and the median freehold sale £75,625 — a gap of +36.9%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 6 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Lancaster at £811 a month as of Jun 2026 — £593 for a one-bedroom home and £911 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £72,125 here, that rent is a gross yield of 13.49% 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 LA4, 375 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 141 violent, 21 burglary, 24 vehicle-related and 70 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.2 times busier.

Against the 142,934 residents the 2021 census counted in Lancaster, that is 2.62 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 08

How Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe sits below that national figure — -54.2%.

Within Morecambe the street ranks 624 of 748 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £97,950 (-26.4%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £944 per square metre, across 31 of the 108 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 £14,000 to £156,000. 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.

Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe sits in Lancaster, in the North West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Lancaster at 5.8 times median local earnings of £34,731 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 Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe?

How many homes have sold in Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe?

108 sales are on record for Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe, the most recent completing on 8 Jan 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +44.5% between 2003 and 2013. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +11.5%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £97,000, set in 2006. 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 Rosebery Avenue, Morecambe?

£944 per square metre, from the 31 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 8 Jan 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.
