SY23 3 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside SY23 (Aberystwyth). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical SY23 3 home went from £56,000 in 1995 to £248,800 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 104%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 21% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SY23 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 2003 (+31.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.6%). 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) | +3.7% | +1.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.9% | −0.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.9% | −0.8% |
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.
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 40 sales completed in SY23 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 136 sales a year before the financial crisis and 98 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 homes rent for around SY23 3
SY23 3 falls under Ceredigion, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £714 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £555 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,074 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Ceredigion
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £248,800 median purchase price, a rent of £714 a month (£8,568 a year) works out at a 3.4% 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.
What kind of market SY23 3 is
Only 40 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SY23 3 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

The price of an extra bedroom in SY
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SY area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| 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%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
