In cash terms the typical BS7 9 home went from £56,000 in 1995 to £407,500 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 235%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. 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 BS7 9 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 2000 (+22.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−9.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −4.1% | −6.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.4% | −3.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.9% | −0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.9% | +1.1% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Sales activity in BS7 9
The year-by-year sales count
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, 76 sales completed in BS7 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 339 sales a year before the financial crisis and 196 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.
The rental side of BS7 9
For renting purposes BS7 9 sits in Bristol, City of. The ONS average private rent there is £1,883 a month (May 2026). 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.
Set against the £407,500 median sold price, £1,883 a month is £22,596 a year, a gross yield of 5.5%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

What another bedroom costs in BS
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the BS area. 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.
