Across 23 registered 2026 sales, the typical (median) SR3 4 home went for £125,000. The mean is £114,800, beneath it, usually the sign of a batch of very cheap recorded transfers pulling the average lower.
Price per square metre in SR3 4
Measured by floor area, the last five years of SR3 4 sales average about £1,370 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

In cash terms the typical SR3 4 home went from £33,000 in 1995 to £125,000 in 2026, roughly 3.8 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 74%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 25% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SR3 4 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 (+32.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−11.6%). 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) | +1.0% | −1.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.1% | −1.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.1% | −0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.7% | −1.1% |
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.
Sales activity in SR3 4
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.
SR3 4 recorded 23 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 59 sales a year before the financial crisis and 40 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
Reading the SR3 4 market
This is a thin market: 23 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 SR3, this sector trades 29% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
Rents around SR3 4
The local authority for SR3 4 is Sunderland, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £701 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £519 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,073, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Sunderland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£701 a month is £8,412 a year, which against the £125,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 6.7%. 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in SR
Real sold prices by size across the SR 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £199,972 | £270,000 (+35%) | £414,995 (+54%) | £527,500 (+27%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
