Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on CA5: a quiet market, so take your time
CA5 sees just 10 sales a month, so the median can look stronger than the market really is.
If you are thinking of selling, a spread from £155,000 to £490,000 makes £275,000 a poor guide to any one home, so price from sold homes that match yours in type and size; sales are too rare here to hurry, so give the price a local agent’s sense-check; a quick cash sale buys certainty at a cost, usually about 70–85% of market value as a rough guide, not a quote, so weigh it carefully.
Sell houseIf you are looking to buy, on price, CA5 is close to the UK average, and edging up, so recent sold homes are a better guide than older ones.
Our checklist before an offer: what has been applied for nearby (43 applications on record within 500 m), whether a new-build premium is baked into the price and flood risk over the long term, plus the title, which your conveyancer should review.
The sold prices leave a lot open; the free CA5 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English
What the Cumberland (CA5) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £360,000 against £180,000 for terraced homes: about 2.0 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £155,000 and £490,000, so the median says little about any one home.
- Nearly all of these sales (98%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.
- 16% of these sales were new builds, which often sell at a premium the first time around and can lift the median above what resale homes make.
- This is a quiet district: only about 10 recorded sales a month.

Median across 12 sampled postcodes; 1 is the most deprived 10% of England, 10 the least.
Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled CA5 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 5 to decile 8, with a median of decile 7 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
CA5 7JE, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 7 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so CA5 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in CA5: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

What it costs to run a home in CA5, band by band
Cumberland's council tax for 2026-27 set against the CA5 median sold price of £275,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the CA5 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.
