In cash terms the typical ST3 6 home went from £34,000 in 1995 to £171,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 131%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2024. The market now sits about 13% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the ST3 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 (+38.9% on the year before); the weakest, 1998 (−13.1%). 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) | −10.0% | −12.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.4% | −1.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
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.
How many homes change hands in ST3 6
How many homes change hands
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 38 ST3 6 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 141 sales a year recently, against 148 a year before 2008. 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 ST3 6 is
This is a thin market: 38 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.
The rental side of ST3 6
ST3 6 falls under Stoke-on-Trent, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £709 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £514 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, Stoke-on-Trent
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £171,000 median sold price, £709 a month is £8,508 a year, a gross yield of 5.0%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in ST
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.
