How Clifford Close, Penrith prices moved
The chart tracks the median Clifford Close, Penrith house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2010. 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 | £21,125 | £46,907 |
| 2000s | 1 | £82,000 | £149,380 |
| 2010s | 1 | £37,500 | £52,875 |
The highest yearly median on record for Clifford Close, Penrith is £82,000 in 2005; the lowest is £21,125 in 1997. Across the full 15-year record the cash median has moved from £22,375 to £37,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £48,537, so the real change over the whole record is +23.4% — about +1.51% 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: +77.5% in cash against +33.7% 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 Clifford Close, Penrith 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. Clifford Close, Penrith 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 53 | 80.3% | £38,000 | £10,500 – £120,000 |
| Terraced | 11 | 16.7% | £76,000 | £25,000 – £138,750 |
| Semi-detached | 2 | 3.0% | £31,000 | £31,000 – £34,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Clifford Close, Penrith
65 of the sales on record are leasehold and 1 freehold — 98.5% 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 £38,000 and the median freehold sale £40,050 — a gap of +5.4%. 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 | 65 | 98.5% | £38,000 |
| Freehold | 1 | 1.5% | £40,050 |
| New build | 1 | 1.5% | £24,500 |
| Existing home | 65 | 98.5% | £40,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -38.7%. 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Westmorland and Furness, 32.5% of 122,630 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 11.2% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of CA11, 14 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 7 violent, 0 burglary, 1 vehicle-related and 0 anti-social behaviour.

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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Westmorland and Furness at 5.9 times median local earnings of £40,529 a year, measured to Sep 2025.
