In cash terms the typical BS3 2 home went from £43,200 in 1995 to £451,000 in 2026, roughly 10 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 380%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash.
Year-on-year change in the BS3 2 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+26.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +0.4% | −1.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +7.2% | +2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.4% | +1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.9% | +2.1% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 46 sales completed in BS3 2. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 118 sales a year before the financial crisis and 94 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
How BS3 2 trades
Only 46 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BS3 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
The rental side of BS3 2
The local authority for BS3 2 is Bristol, City of, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,883 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,224 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,552, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Bristol, City of
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,883 a month is £22,596 a year, which against the £451,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.0%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

What another bedroom costs in BS
Real sold prices by size across the BS area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £360,000 | £480,000 (+33%) | £710,000 (+48%) | £960,000 (+35%) |
| Semi-detached | £267,000 | £310,000 (+16%) | £372,000 (+20%) | £500,000 (+34%) | £857,110 (+71%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
