How this area has changed
Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dovedale | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector SG2 9 | £382,500 | £331,000 +16% since | £273,500 +40% since | £170,000 +125% since | £165,000 +132% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in SG2 9, over the last five years (762 sales):
- What sells: 66% terraced, 14% semi-detached, 10% detached, 8% flats, 1% other.
- 9% sold leasehold.
- 125 sales in the last twelve months, against 215 in the same twelve months five years ago.
