Market Overview: S40
S40 recorded 42 residential sales in the twelve-month window, enough to ground the median but not so many that property-type or street-level differences wash out. Individual sales ranged from £65k to £540k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — semi-detached houses led with 40% but the mix is diverse, while terraced houses accounted for 38%.
The S40 1AD 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 6.5%, based on ONS regional rents.
