In cash terms the typical SP1 home went from £70,000 in 1995 to £312,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 105%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 22% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SP1 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 (+31.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−7.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 30% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £518,500 against £170,000 for a flat, 3.0 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.8% | −3.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.2% | −4.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.5% | −1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.6% | −1.2% |
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.
Sales activity in SP1
Sales per year, counted
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 last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
SP1 recorded 283 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 504 sales a year before the financial crisis and 328 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 SP1
For renting purposes SP1 sits in Wiltshire. The ONS average private rent there is £1,064 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £736 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,711, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Wiltshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £312,500 median sold price, £1,064 a month is £12,768 a year, a gross yield of 4.1%: 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: SP prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the SP 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.
