Market Overview: BR5
Across the last twelve months, 16 residential sales in BR5 produced a median price of £546k. Individual sales ranged from £225k to £780k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
The local market is dominated by semi-detached houses, which made up 75% of all sales in the sample, while terraced houses accounted for 19%. Semi-detached stock signals interwar or post-war suburban development, typically with gardens front and back.
The BR5 1AA dataset is a reasonable baseline, but decisions at the individual-property level should still lean on matched comparables rather than the area median alone. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 2.6%, based on ONS regional rents.
