Section 01
How Cambridge Road, Whitehaven prices moved
The chart tracks the median Cambridge Road, Whitehaven house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2002 to 2024. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 4 | £28,000 | £51,008 |
| 2020s | 2 | £85,000 | £86,848 |
The highest yearly median on record for Cambridge Road, Whitehaven is £93,000 in 2024; the lowest is £17,500 in 2002. Across the full 23-year record the cash median has moved from £17,500 to £93,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £33,755, so the real change over the whole record is +189.9% — about +4.96% 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: +3.3% in cash against -35.2% 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.

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.

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 Cambridge Road, Whitehaven 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. Cambridge Road, Whitehaven 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 77 | 84.6% | £59,500 | £10,000 – £128,000 |
| Terraced | 12 | 13.2% | £85,000 | £26,500 – £95,000 |
| Detached | 2 | 2.2% | £23,000 | £23,000 – £51,500 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Cambridge Road, Whitehaven
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 91 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 91 | 100.0% | £65,000 |
| New build | 2 | 2.2% | £93,250 |
| Existing home | 89 | 97.8% | £64,000 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +45.7%. 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.
A further 7 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.

Living in Cambridge Road, Whitehaven
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Cumberland, 37.3% of 137,831 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 7.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 656 | 0.5% |
| B | 13,329 | 9.7% |
| C | 37,364 | 27.1% |
| D | 54,653 | 39.7% |
| E | 20,980 | 15.2% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Cumberland at £670 a month as of Jun 2026 — £499 for a one-bedroom home and £772 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £65,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 12.37% 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 CA28, 152 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 73 violent, 7 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 6 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.
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 Whitehaven the street ranks 322 of 384 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £95,000 (-31.6%).

Cambridge Road, Whitehaven sits in Cumberland, in the North West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Cumberland at 4.2 times median local earnings of £42,808 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Cambridge Road, Whitehaven?
The median price paid in Cambridge Road, Whitehaven across every sale on the register is £65,000. 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 Cambridge Road, Whitehaven?
91 sales are on record for Cambridge Road, Whitehaven, the most recent completing on 17 Dec 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +3.3% between 2008 and 2024. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -35.2%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Cambridge Road, Whitehaven house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £93,000, set in 2024. 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 Cambridge Road, Whitehaven?
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 17 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.
