South Stevenage market report SG2 0, Stevenage
The standing SG2 0 (South Stevenage) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 3,852 sales registered with HM Land Registry in SG2 0 (Stevenage) 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 recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: the 2026 median for SG2 0 (Stevenage) is £343,000, from 31 registered sales, up 17% on five years earlier; the mean is £361,200, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,090 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 3,852 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
SG2 0 is one sector of SG2 (Stevenage): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

| 1996 | £57,000 | £120,210 | 164 |
| 1995 | £59,000 | £128,257 | 93 |
In cash terms the typical SG2 0 home went from £59,000 in 1995 to £343,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 167%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 11% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SG2 0 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 2002 (+34.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−10.6%). 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
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.9% | +1.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.1% | −1.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.0% | +1.2% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 31 SG2 0 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 149 sales a year before the financial crisis and 86 a year over the last five. 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.
Rents around SG2 0
The local authority for SG2 0 is Stevenage, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,426 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,018 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,110, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Stevenage
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,426 a month is £17,112 a year, which against the £343,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.0%. 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.
How SG2 0 trades
Only 31 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SG2 0 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

What another bedroom costs in SG
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SG 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 | — | £425,000 | £562,950 (+32%) | £790,000 (+40%) | £1,107,500 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £315,000 | £375,000 (+19%) | £450,000 (+20%) | £582,500 (+29%) | £785,000 (+35%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
