Moss Side market report FY8 1, Lytham St. Annes

The standing FY8 1 (Moss Side) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 6,746 sales registered with HM Land Registry in FY8 1 (Lytham St. Annes) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

In short: the typical home in FY8 1 (Lytham St. Annes) sold for £204,000 in 2026, the median of 55 registered sales, up 4% on five years earlier. The mean was £241,300, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,460 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 6,746 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.

FY8 1 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside FY8 (Lytham St. Annes). 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.

What FY8 1 homes really sell for

The FY8 1 median stands at £204,000 for 2026, built from 55 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £241,300, well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.

What a square metre costs in FY8 1

By floor space, homes in FY8 1 have sold for about £2,460 per square metre on average over the last five years: the like-for-like measure that lets you compare a small flat with a large house, from the Energy Performance Certificate floor areas behind each sale.

For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so FY8 1 trades 28% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical FY8 1 home went from £59,500 in 1995 to £204,000 in 2026, roughly 3.4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 58%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 37% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+32.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−17.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years

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 FY8 1

FY8 1 recorded 55 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 299 sales a year before the financial crisis and 152 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.

What homes rent for around FY8 1

For renting purposes FY8 1 sits in Fylde. The ONS average private rent there is £858 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £601 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,385 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

Against the £204,000 median purchase price, a rent of £858 a month (£10,296 a year) works out at a 5.0% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

How FY8 1 trades

This is a thin market: 55 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. Within FY8, this sector trades 18% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Asked and answered: FY8 1 (Moss Side)

Will FY8 1 prices rise from here?

Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 4% over five years in cash but down 18% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
