SM1 3 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside SM1 (Sutton). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical SM1 3 home went from £74,000 in 1995 to £463,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 188%: 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 23% 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 SM1 3 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 1998 (+25.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−10.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −10.4% | −12.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.2% | −4.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.5% | −1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.8% |
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.
Sales activity in SM1 3
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 54 sales completed in SM1 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 286 sales a year before the financial crisis and 137 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.
The rental side of SM1 3
The local authority for SM1 3 is Sutton, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,550 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,233 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,486 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Sutton
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,550 a month is £18,600 a year, which against the £463,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.0%. 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.
The shape of the SM1 3 market
This is a thin market: 54 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. Within SM1, this sector trades 10% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Moving up a bedroom in SM: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the SM area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
