Market Overview: SY1
SY1 recorded 39 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 £115k to £425k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
Terraced houses were the most common transaction type, representing 64% of sales, while flats accounted for 21% and semi-detached houses accounted for 15%. A terraced-house majority usually reflects Victorian or Edwardian stock — long runs of three- or four-storey houses that rarely come to market vacant.
The SY1 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 3.9%, based on ONS regional rents.
