How Tennyson Close, Towcester prices moved
The chart tracks the median Tennyson Close, Towcester house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1999 to 2002. 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 | 1 | £77,000 | £170,976 |
| 2000s | 2 | £93,500 | £170,329 |
The highest yearly median on record for Tennyson Close, Towcester is £115,000 in 2002; the lowest is £77,000 in 1999. Across the full 4-year record the cash median has moved from £77,000 to £115,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £156,893, so the real change over the whole record is +41.4% — about +12.24% 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.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Buckinghamshire, 47.8% of 262,827 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.4% 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 Buckinghamshire at £1,476 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,035 for a one-bedroom home and £1,603 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £160,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.07% 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 NN12, 47 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 18 violent, 0 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 11 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.6 times quieter.
Against the 553,078 residents the 2021 census counted in Buckinghamshire, that is 0.08 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.

Tennyson Close, Towcester sits in Buckinghamshire, in the East Midlands.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Buckinghamshire at 11.3 times median local earnings of £40,365 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
