How Farnham Drive, Rushden prices moved
The chart tracks the median Farnham Drive, Rushden house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2021. 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 | £45,250 | £100,476 |
| 2000s | 6 | £93,000 | £169,419 |
| 2010s | 2 | £154,000 | £217,140 |
| 2020s | 1 | £230,000 | £235,000 |
The highest yearly median on record for Farnham Drive, Rushden is £230,000 in 2021; the lowest is £45,250 in 1996. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £45,250 to £230,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £98,158, so the real change over the whole record is +196.0% — about +4.44% 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: +67.9% in cash against +19.1% 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Bedford, 53.4% of 89,810 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.7% 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 Bedford at £1,169 a month as of Jun 2026 — £797 for a one-bedroom home and £1,255 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £123,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.36% 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 NN10, 287 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 86 violent, 6 burglary, 9 vehicle-related and 77 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.7 times busier.
Against the 185,225 residents the 2021 census counted in Bedford, that is 1.55 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.

Within Rushden the street ranks 301 of 484 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £132,000 (-6.4%).

Farnham Drive, Rushden sits in Bedford, in the East Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Bedford at 9.1 times median local earnings of £37,994 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 Farnham Drive, Rushden?

When were Farnham Drive, Rushden house prices at their highest?

What is the price per square metre in Farnham Drive, Rushden?
£1,528 per square metre, from the 28 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 27 Mar 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.
