In cash terms the typical SA4 6 home went from £42,000 in 1995 to £225,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 146%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SA4 6 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 2004 (+41.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−11.8%). 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) | +2.3% | −0.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.1% | −2.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.9% | +1.4% |
| 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.
Sales activity in SA4 6
Sales per year, counted
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, 33 sales completed in SA4 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 139 sales a year before the financial crisis and 81 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 shape of the SA4 6 market
Only 33 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SA4 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.
The rental side of SA4 6
The local authority for SA4 6 is Swansea, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £838 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £677 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,257 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Swansea
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£838 a month is £10,056 a year, which against the £225,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.5%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

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