What a square metre costs in SK4 5

For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so SK4 5 trades 7% above the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical SK4 5 home went from £51,500 in 1995 to £305,600 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 173%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 26% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

Year-on-year change in the SK4 5 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 (+22.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−14.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

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.

SK4 5 recorded 34 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 125 sales a year before the financial crisis and 84 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.

The rental side of SK4 5

For renting purposes SK4 5 sits in Stockport. The ONS average private rent there is £1,100 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £798 a month here against £1,719 for four or more bedrooms.

Set against the £305,600 median sold price, £1,100 a month is £13,200 a year, a gross yield of 4.3%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

The shape of the SK4 5 market

This is a thin market: 34 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. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

40% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.

"Under comparable sales" means the asking price sits below what similar homes nearby actually fetched. Treat it as the start of a conversation, never a valuation, and always view the home.

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.

Bedroom by bedroom: SK prices by size

What homes of each size actually sold for across the SK area, 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.

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the SK area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
