| 1996 | £34,000 | £71,704 | 278 |
| 1995 | £39,000 | £84,780 | 264 |
In cash terms the typical ST1 6 home went from £39,000 in 1995 to £165,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 95%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 5% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the ST1 6 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 (+45.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2000 (−14.9%). 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) | +3.1% | +0.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.6% | −0.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.1% | +0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Sales activity in ST1 6
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 register shows 63 ST1 6 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 309 sales a year before the financial crisis and 158 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.
The shape of the ST1 6 market
Within ST1, this sector trades 26% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of ST1 6
ST1 6 falls under Stoke-on-Trent, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £709 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £514 a month here against £1,073 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Stoke-on-Trent
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £165,000 median sold price, £709 a month is £8,508 a year, a gross yield of 5.2%: 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: ST prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the ST area, 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 | — | £240,000 | £334,950 (+40%) | £500,000 (+49%) | £687,500 (+38%) |
