Hanley market report ST1 3, Stoke-On-Trent
The standing ST1 3 (Hanley) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 3,959 registered sales in ST1 3 (Stoke-On-Trent) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: the 2026 median for ST1 3 (Stoke-On-Trent) is £113,000, from 22 registered sales, down 6% on five years earlier; the mean is £122,200, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £1,630 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 3,959 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
ST1 3 is one sector of ST1 (Stoke-On-Trent): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

Price per square metre in ST1 3
Measured by floor area, the last five years of ST1 3 sales average about £1,630 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.
For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so ST1 3 trades 60% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical ST1 3 home went from £27,000 in 1995 to £113,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 93%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2017. The market now sits about 35% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the ST1 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 2004 (+53.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2010 (−20.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What ST1 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −19.3% | −21.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.2% | −5.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.5% | −3.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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 22 ST1 3 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 195 sales a year before the financial crisis and 74 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 kind of market ST1 3 is
This is a thin market: 22 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the ST1 district median, ST1 3 sits 13% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
Rents around ST1 3
ST1 3 falls under Stoke-on-Trent, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £709 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £514 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, Stoke-on-Trent
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£709 a month is £8,508 a year, which against the £113,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 7.5%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: ST prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the ST 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £240,000 | £334,950 (+40%) | £500,000 (+49%) | £687,500 (+38%) |
| Semi-detached | £165,000 | £180,000 (+9%) | £228,000 (+27%) | £310,000 (+36%) | £402,500 (+30%) |

| Flat | £95,000 | £125,000 (+32%) | £185,000 (+48%) | — | — |
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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
