Clase market report SA6 5, Swansea

The SA6 5 (Clase) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Underneath every chart here sit 3,624 registered sales in SA6 5 (Swansea) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.

In short: the 2026 median for SA6 5 (Swansea) is £177,200, from 40 registered sales, up 7% on five years earlier; the mean is £198,900, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,010 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 3,624 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.

A postcode sector like SA6 5 is a single group of streets within SA6 (Swansea), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

In cash terms the typical SA6 5 home went from £36,800 in 1995 to £177,200 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 122%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 15% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

Year-on-year change in the SA6 5 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 (+41.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−13.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

The turnover behind the prices

How many homes change hands

Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.

The register shows 40 SA6 5 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 156 sales a year before the financial crisis and 94 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 SA6 5 market

Only 40 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SA6 5 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

The rental side of SA6 5

SA6 5 falls under Swansea, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £838 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £677 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,257, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Against the £177,200 median purchase price, a rent of £838 a month (£10,056 a year) works out at a 5.7% 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.

Of everything listed here, 35% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.

The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.

Moving up a bedroom in SA: the cost

The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SA area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

The risers and the fallers
