In cash terms the typical SN3 1 home went from £68,500 in 1995 to £335,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 125%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SN3 1 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 2000 (+26.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−13.1%). 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) | −1.8% | −4.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.2% | −0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.6% | −0.2% |
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.
How many homes change hands in SN3 1
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 61 SN3 1 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 176 sales a year before the financial crisis and 129 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 SN3 1
The local authority for SN3 1 is Swindon, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,089 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £814 a month here against £1,648 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Swindon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £335,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,089 a month (£13,068 a year) works out at a 3.9% 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 kind of market SN3 1 is

Moving up a bedroom in SN: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the SN 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 | £440,000 (+33%) | £640,000 (+45%) | £897,500 (+40%) |

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
