In cash terms the typical PO12 3 home went from £42,000 in 1995 to £221,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 143%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 18% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PO12 3 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 2003 (+21.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−4.3%). 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) | +3.2% | +0.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.9% | −3.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.9% | −0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
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 PO12 3
The year-by-year sales count
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, 80 sales completed in PO12 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 365 sales a year before the financial crisis and 153 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 PO12 3
The local authority for PO12 3 is Gosport, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,158 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £815 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,713 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Gosport
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £221,800 median sold price, £1,158 a month is £13,896 a year, a gross yield of 6.3%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in PO
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PO 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £350,000 | £475,000 (+36%) | £675,000 (+42%) | £900,000 (+33%) |
| Semi-detached | £273,250 | £305,000 (+12%) | £352,500 (+16%) | £430,000 (+22%) | £610,000 (+42%) |

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
