In cash terms the typical SN4 9 home went from £76,800 in 1995 to £354,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 112%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2019. The market now sits about 7% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

Year-on-year change in the SN4 9 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 (+26.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−7.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Over the last twelve months of data, 32 sales completed in SN4 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 117 sales a year before the financial crisis and 89 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.

Rents around SN4 9

For renting purposes SN4 9 sits in Swindon. The ONS average private rent there is £1,089 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £814 a month here against £1,648 for four or more bedrooms.

Set against the £354,000 median sold price, £1,089 a month is £13,068 a year, a gross yield of 3.7%: 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.

Reading the SN4 9 market

Only 32 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SN4 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Within SN4, this sector trades 13% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Bedroom by bedroom: SN prices by size

The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SN area. 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.
