Looking ahead, Littleport is likely to benefit from its strong appeal to families and couples, which supports demand for three-bedroom houses. The current median asking sale price for a three-bedroom house is £287,500, with typical rents at £1,225, making the numbers work for investors focused on income.
While short-term capital growth has changed by -2.7%, the three-year trend of 11.6% suggests that the area still offers long-term potential. With a high proportion of owner-occupiers and limited private renting, investors may find less competition but also less tenant churn. Overall, Littleport looks set for steady, if unspectacular, performance over the next twelve months.
