In cash terms the typical SN6 6 home went from £71,000 in 1995 to £390,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 153%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 21% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SN6 6 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 (+28.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−14.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SN6 6 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −14.8% | −16.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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, 28 sales completed in SN6 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 155 sales a year before the financial crisis and 84 a year over the last five. 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 homes rent for around SN6 6
SN6 6 falls under Wiltshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,064 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £736 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,711 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Wiltshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £390,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,064 a month (£12,768 a year) works out at a 3.3% 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.
The shape of the SN6 6 market
Only 28 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SN6 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Within SN6, this sector trades 13% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Prediction is not this page's business. Its business is the record, which says: the median is up 5% over five years in cash but down 17% after inflation. Read the volume chart with the price chart before acting on either, remembering that registrations trail the deals themselves by weeks.

The price of an extra bedroom in SN
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SN area. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £330,000 | £440,000 (+33%) | £640,000 (+45%) | £897,500 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £240,000 | £281,250 (+17%) | £330,000 (+17%) | £417,000 (+26%) | £650,000 (+56%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
