In cash terms the typical BS4 1 home went from £28,500 in 1995 to £270,000 in 2026, roughly 9 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 336%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 14% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the BS4 1 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 (+25.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−17.4%). 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) | +2.4% | 0.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.5% | −1.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.5% | +1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.5% | +1.7% |
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.
How many homes change hands in BS4 1
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 40 sales completed in BS4 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 158 sales a year before the financial crisis and 113 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
How BS4 1 trades
This is a thin market: 40 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Against the BS4 district median, BS4 1 sits 24% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around BS4 1
The local authority for BS4 1 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.

£1,883 a month is £22,596 a year, which against the £270,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 8.4%. 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.

On the market in BS4 today
This is what you could actually buy today: 594 homes currently on the market from 8 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole BS4 district, not just BS4 1: live asking prices are collected per district.
30% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Moving up a bedroom in BS: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the BS area, 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%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
