In cash terms the typical SY10 7 home went from £44,500 in 1995 to £188,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 94%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2006. The market now sits about 41% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SY10 7 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 (+48.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−37.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −37.3% | −38.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −3.1% | −7.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.4% | −3.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +0.1% | −2.6% |
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.
Sales activity in SY10 7
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 26 sales completed in SY10 7. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 77 sales a year before the financial crisis and 57 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What tenants pay around SY10 7
SY10 7 falls under Shropshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £813 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £600 a month here against £1,384 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Shropshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £188,000 median purchase price, a rent of £813 a month (£9,756 a year) works out at a 5.2% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
How SY10 7 trades
Only 26 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SY10 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Against the SY10 district median, SY10 7 sits 33% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

Prediction is not this page's business. Its business is the record, which says: the median is down 14% over five years in cash but down 32% after inflation. Read the volume chart with the price chart before acting on either, remembering that registrations trail the deals themselves by weeks.

The price of an extra bedroom in SY
Real sold prices by size across the SY 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 | — | £257,700 | £355,000 (+38%) | £522,750 (+47%) | £680,000 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £187,500 | £220,000 (+17%) | £257,000 (+17%) | £347,500 (+35%) | £440,000 (+27%) |

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.
