The raw material for this page is 2,755 HM Land Registry entries for SA17 4 (Kidwelly), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS. Valuations, estimates and asking prices appear nowhere in it.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

Everything rests on 2,755 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
SA17 4 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside SA17 (Kidwelly). 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.

In cash terms the typical SA17 4 home went from £28,000 in 1995 to £175,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 188%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2010, and today's median remains roughly 26% under it: a 2010 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SA17 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 2010 (+57.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−24.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SA17 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.4% | −7.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.0% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +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.
How many homes change hands in SA17 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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 36 sales completed in SA17 4. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 97 sales a year over the last five years against 79 before the financial crisis. 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.
Reading the SA17 4 market
Only 36 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SA17 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
Rents around SA17 4
For renting purposes SA17 4 sits in Carmarthenshire. The ONS average private rent there is £680 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £495 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £990, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Carmarthenshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £175,000 median sold price, £680 a month is £8,160 a year, a gross yield of 4.7%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in SA
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SA area, from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

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.
