In cash terms the typical SK16 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £226,200 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 121%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 3% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SK16 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 (+25.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2010 (−12.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 48% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £330,000 against £107,000 for a flat, 3.1 times the price.

Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +8.9% | +6.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.1% | −0.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.5% | +3.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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.
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.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 171 SK16 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 380 sales a year before the financial crisis and 185 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.
Reading the SK16 market
In its area's price order SK16 comes 16 of 19, towards the cheaper end of the table.
What homes rent for around SK16
The local authority for SK16 is Tameside, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £920 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £677 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,389 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Tameside
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £226,200 median purchase price, a rent of £920 a month (£11,040 a year) works out at a 4.9% 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.

What another bedroom costs in SK
Real sold prices by size across the SK area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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 | — | £330,000 | £474,050 (+44%) | £712,500 (+50%) | £1,000,000 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £227,000 | £265,000 (+17%) | £343,225 (+30%) | £475,000 (+38%) | £660,000 (+39%) |

| Flat | £135,000 | £200,000 (+48%) | £300,000 (+50%) | £450,000 (+50%) | — |
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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
