SO31 6 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside SO31 (Southampton). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical SO31 6 home went from £70,000 in 1995 to £351,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 131%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SO31 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 2002 (+27.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−10.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.4% | −8.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.2% | −4.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.1% | −1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
SO31 6 recorded 76 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 305 sales a year before the financial crisis and 154 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.
Rents around SO31 6
For renting purposes SO31 6 sits in Fareham. The ONS average private rent there is £1,213 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £857 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,997 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
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 £351,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.1%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: SO prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SO area, 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.
