Market Overview: SO40
Land Registry records 30 residential transactions in SO40 across the last twelve months — a middle-of-the-road volume that supports broad price indications without pinning a specific street. The price range between £160k and £588k is tight by London standards, suggesting the stock that trades here is relatively uniform.
No single property type dominates — terraced houses led with 37% but the mix is diverse, while semi-detached houses accounted for 33% and detached houses accounted for 23%.
The SO40 2AW 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 4.6%, based on ONS regional rents.
