| 1995 | £57,200 | £124,344 | 110 |
In cash terms the typical DT3 4 home went from £57,200 in 1995 to £336,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 171%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 21% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DT3 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 (+26.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−15.4%). 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) | −6.5% | −8.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.5% | −0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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.
How many homes change hands in DT3 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.
DT3 4 recorded 50 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 132 sales a year before the financial crisis and 98 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.
The shape of the DT3 4 market
This is a thin market: 50 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.
What homes rent for around DT3 4
For renting purposes DT3 4 sits in Dorset. The ONS average private rent there is £1,041 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £721 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,661, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Dorset
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £336,500 median sold price, £1,041 a month is £12,492 a year, a gross yield of 3.7%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in DT: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the DT 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 | — | £350,000 | £455,000 (+30%) | £670,000 (+47%) | £870,000 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £236,000 | £285,000 (+21%) | £345,000 (+21%) | £457,000 (+32%) | £586,750 (+28%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
