In cash terms the typical SY23 5 home went from £53,500 in 1995 to £270,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 132%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2004; the current median sits about 10% below that. Someone who bought at the 2004 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SY23 5 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 (+46.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−22.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +35.0% | +31.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.7% | −1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.4% | +1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 15 sales completed in SY23 5. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 44 sales a year recently, against 46 a year before 2008. 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.
How SY23 5 trades
This is a thin market: 15 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. Within SY23, this sector trades 13% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
What homes rent for around SY23 5
For renting purposes SY23 5 sits in Ceredigion. The ONS average private rent there is £714 a month (May 2026). 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.
£714 a month is £8,568 a year, which against the £270,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.2%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

What another bedroom costs in SY
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SY area. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
