Market Overview: SO42
The median sale price in SO42 is £520k, drawn from 14 residential transactions in the last twelve months. Individual sales ranged from £93k to £1.25m, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — detached houses led with 43% but the mix is diverse, while flats accounted for 36%.
The SO42 7AA 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 2.8%, based on ONS regional rents.
