Gobowen market report SY10 9, Oswestry

The standing SY10 9 (Gobowen) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 2,280 registered sales in SY10 9 (Oswestry) 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 data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

In short: 29 registered 2026 sales put the SY10 9 (Oswestry) median at £280,000, down 2% on five years earlier, with a mean of £320,700, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,860 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 2,280 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.

A postcode sector like SY10 9 is a single group of streets within SY10 (Oswestry), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

What a home in SY10 9 sells for

The 2026 median for SY10 9 is £280,000, taken from 29 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £320,700, modestly above it, the usual shape of a market with an expensive tail.

Price per square metre in SY10 9

By floor space, homes in SY10 9 have sold for about £2,860 per square metre on average over the last five years: the like-for-like measure that lets you compare a small flat with a large house, from the Energy Performance Certificate floor areas behind each sale.

England and Wales as a whole trade at a £285,000 median, leaving SY10 9 2% below the national figure.

In cash terms the typical SY10 9 home went from £63,200 in 1995 to £280,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 104%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 22% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+42.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−18.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Annualised returns

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.

The turnover behind the prices

The register shows 29 SY10 9 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 89 sales a year before the financial crisis and 54 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.

Reading the SY10 9 market

This is a thin market: 29 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.

Rents around SY10 9

The local authority for SY10 9 is Shropshire, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £813 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £600 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,384, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Set against the £280,000 median sold price, £813 a month is £9,756 a year, a gross yield of 3.5%: 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.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
