BS3 4 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside BS3 (Bristol). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical BS3 4 home went from £39,000 in 1995 to £420,000 in 2026, roughly 11 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 395%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 15% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BS3 4 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 2002 (+30.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−11.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What BS3 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +8.8% | +6.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.7% | −1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.0% | +1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.6% | +1.8% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
How many homes change hands in BS3 4
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 84 sales completed in BS3 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 258 sales a year before the financial crisis and 161 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
The rental side of BS3 4
The local authority for BS3 4 is Bristol, City of, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,883 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,224 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,552 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,883 a month is £22,596 a year, which against the £420,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.4%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: BS prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the BS area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| 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%) |
