In cash terms the typical SO31 1 home went from £123,100 in 1995 to £345,000 in 2026, roughly 2.8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 29%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 35% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SO31 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 (+47.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2002 (−26.3%). 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) | −14.0% | −16.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.3% | −4.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.1% | −2.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 21 sales completed in SO31 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 71 sales a year before the financial crisis and 40 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.
What tenants pay around SO31 1
SO31 1 falls under Fareham, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,213 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £857 a month here against £1,997 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Fareham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,213 a month is £14,556 a year, which against the £345,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.2%. 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.
What kind of market SO31 1 is
This is a thin market: 21 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. 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.

What another bedroom costs in SO
Real sold prices by size across the SO 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.
