In cash terms the typical SO53 1 home went from £86,400 in 1995 to £477,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 154%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 27% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SO53 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 2004 (+30.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2005 (−23.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −9.0% | −11.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.6% | −6.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.4% | −1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
SO53 1 recorded 28 sales in the last twelve months of data. 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 60 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.
The shape of the SO53 1 market
This is a thin market: 28 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. Within SO53, this sector trades 26% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
What tenants pay around SO53 1
SO53 1 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 £477,500 median sold price, £1,210 a month is £14,520 a year, a gross yield of 3.0%: 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. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £369,500 | £515,000 (+39%) | £775,000 (+50%) | £1,194,217 (+54%) |
