How Chawston Close, St Neots prices moved

The chart tracks the median Chawston Close, St Neots house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 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.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Chawston Close, St Neots is £188,250 in 2021; the lowest is £37,500 in 1999. Across the full 25-year record the cash median has moved from £39,250 to £188,250.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £83,222, so the real change over the whole record is +185.8% — about +4.47% 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: +47.6% in cash against +7.3% 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 Chawston Close, St Neots 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. Chawston Close, St Neots is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Chawston Close, St Neots

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 139 freehold — 0.0% 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.

A further 3 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 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 £109,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 12.87% 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 PE19, 123 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 41 violent, 6 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 22 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.4 times quieter.

Against the 185,225 residents the 2021 census counted in Bedford, that is 0.66 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

The neighbourhood around Chawston Close, St Neots

The 2021 census counted 185,225 residents in Bedford across 74,949 households. 64.6% of those households own their home and 35.4% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

Within St Neots the street ranks 641 of 685 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £179,000 (-39.1%).

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.

The full range on record runs from £27,750 to £267,000. 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.

Chawston Close, St Neots sits in Bedford, in the East of England.

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 Chawston Close, St Neots?

The median price paid in Chawston Close, St Neots across every sale on the register is £109,000. 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 Chawston Close, St Neots?

139 sales are on record for Chawston Close, St Neots, the most recent completing on 10 Dec 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Chawston Close, St Neots house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +47.6% between 2007 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +7.3%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Chawston Close, St Neots house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £188,250, set in 2021. 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 Chawston Close, St Neots?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 10 Dec 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.
