In cash terms the typical SR3 3 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £180,000 in 2026, roughly 3.8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 76%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 21% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SR3 3 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 (+61.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−25.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SR3 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +10.8% | +8.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.6% | +1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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, 41 sales completed in SR3 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 142 sales a year before the financial crisis and 84 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.
Reading the SR3 3 market
This is a thin market: 41 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 tenants pay around SR3 3
The local authority for SR3 3 is Sunderland, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £701 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £519 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,073 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Sunderland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £180,000 median sold price, £701 a month is £8,412 a year, a gross yield of 4.7%: 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: SR prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SR area. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £199,972 | £270,000 (+35%) | £414,995 (+54%) | £527,500 (+27%) |
| Semi-detached | £115,000 | £134,995 (+17%) | £184,500 (+37%) | £265,000 (+44%) | £382,500 (+44%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
The risers and the fallers
