In cash terms the typical SN3 3 home went from £52,200 in 1995 to £255,000 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. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 13% 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 SN3 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 1999 (+23.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−28.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SN3 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.6% | −7.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.0% | −2.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.1% | +0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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.
Sales activity in SN3 3
The year-by-year sales count
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, 25 sales completed in SN3 3. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 114 sales a year recently, against 121 a year before 2008. 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.
What kind of market SN3 3 is
This is a thin market: 25 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 SN3, this sector trades 14% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What homes rent for around SN3 3
SN3 3 falls under Swindon, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,089 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £814 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,648, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Swindon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £255,000 median sold price, £1,089 a month is £13,068 a year, a gross yield of 5.1%: 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.
