In cash terms the typical SG2 9 home went from £53,000 in 1995 to £335,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 191%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 15% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SG2 9 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 2014 (+25.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SG2 9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.5% | −3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.6% | −2.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.9% | −0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.9% | +1.1% |
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.
Sales activity in SG2 9
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.
SG2 9 recorded 57 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 249 sales a year before the financial crisis and 125 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.
Reading the SG2 9 market
This is a thin market: 57 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict.
Rents around SG2 9
The local authority for SG2 9 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 £335,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.1%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: SG prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the SG area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.
| 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%) |
| Terraced | £290,000 | £342,000 (+18%) | £375,000 (+10%) | £510,000 (+36%) | £715,000 (+40%) |
| Flat | £205,000 | £270,000 (+32%) | £410,000 (+52%) | — | — |
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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
