SY4 2 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside SY4 (Shrewsbury). 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 SY4 2 home went from £87,500 in 1995 to £352,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 85%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 26% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SY4 2 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 1997 (+31.3% on the year before); the weakest, 1996 (−23.4%). 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) | −4.7% | −7.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.1% | −4.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −1.2% |
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
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.
The register shows 22 SY4 2 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 68 sales a year over the last five years against 51 before the financial crisis. 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.
The rental side of SY4 2
SY4 2 falls under Shropshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £813 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £600 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,384 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Shropshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £352,500 median purchase price, a rent of £813 a month (£9,756 a year) works out at a 2.8% 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 SY4 2 trades
This is a thin market: 22 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 SY4, this sector trades 16% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Bedroom by bedroom: SY prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SY area, 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%) |
| Terraced | £155,000 | £183,750 (+19%) | £215,000 (+17%) | £275,500 (+28%) | £385,000 (+40%) |
| Flat | £124,000 | £176,500 (+42%) | £280,000 (+59%) | — | — |
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.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
