In cash terms the typical SO50 6 home went from £57,000 in 1995 to £345,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 178%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2019, and today's median remains roughly 20% under it: a 2019 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SO50 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 2003 (+24.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−11.7%). 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) | +7.8% | +5.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.8% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.1% | −1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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
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.
The register shows 37 SO50 6 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 115 sales a year before the financial crisis and 87 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.
What kind of market SO50 6 is
This is a thin market: 37 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.
The rental side of SO50 6
SO50 6 falls under Eastleigh, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,210 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £859 a month here against £1,866 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Eastleigh
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £345,000 median sold price, £1,210 a month is £14,520 a year, a gross yield of 4.2%: 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.

What another bedroom costs in SO
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SO 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 | — | £369,500 | £515,000 (+39%) | £775,000 (+50%) | £1,194,217 (+54%) |
| Semi-detached | £275,000 | £316,000 (+15%) | £375,000 (+19%) | £495,000 (+32%) | £837,500 (+69%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
