Market Overview: S40
With 348 recorded transactions in twelve months, S40 is one of the more liquid postcodes in the sample — individual outliers have less pull on the median figure than they would elsewhere. Individual sales ranged from £58k to £4.74m, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — semi-detached houses led with 44% but the mix is diverse, while detached houses accounted for 23% and terraced houses accounted for 24%.
Prices have been essentially flat across the twelve-month window, moving by under 4% in either direction. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
Liquidity in S40 1AD is healthy: the high sale count makes it easier to benchmark a specific property against genuinely recent comparables rather than extrapolating from older deals. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 5.4%, based on ONS regional rents.
