Davenport market report SK3, Stockport
The standing SK3 (Davenport) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 16,559 sales registered with HM Land Registry in SK3 (Stockport) 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 data to July 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
In short: 152 registered 2026 sales put the SK3 (Stockport) median at £256,800, up 19% on five years earlier, with a mean of £273,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,140 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 16,559 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
SK3 is the postcode district covering Stockport, Davenport, Edgeley in Stockport. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

What a home in SK3 sells for
The 2026 median for SK3 is £256,800, taken from 152 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £273,100, a little above it, the familiar pattern where pricier homes stretch the average.
SK3 prices by floor area
A square metre of SK3 home has cost about £3,140 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, SK3 runs 10% below it.

In cash terms the typical SK3 home went from £42,000 in 1995 to £256,800 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 181%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 6% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SK3 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 (+23.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−4.8%). 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) | −3.1% | −5.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.6% | −1.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.9% | +2.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 49% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £370,000 against £162,500 for a flat, 2.3 times the price.

Transaction volumes
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.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
SK3 recorded 324 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 766 sales a year before the financial crisis and 347 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 tenants pay around SK3
SK3 falls under Stockport, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,100 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £798 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,719, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Stockport
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £256,800 median purchase price, a rent of £1,100 a month (£13,200 a year) works out at a 5.1% 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.

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 SK: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SK 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.
| 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%) | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
