In cash terms the typical SK1 4 home went from £39,600 in 1995 to £236,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 174%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs.
Year-on-year change in the SK1 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 2004 (+29.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SK1 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +7.3% | +4.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.2% | +1.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.1% | +2.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.8% |
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 SK1 4
Sales per year, counted
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 43 SK1 4 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 199 sales a year before the financial crisis and 103 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.
What kind of market SK1 4 is
Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SK1 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the SK1 district median, SK1 4 sits 12% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around SK1 4
SK1 4 falls under Stockport, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,100 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £798 a month here against £1,719 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Stockport
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,100 a month is £13,200 a year, which against the £236,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.6%. 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 SK
Real sold prices by size across the SK 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £330,000 | £474,050 (+44%) | £712,500 (+50%) | £1,000,000 (+40%) |
