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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brookside | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector SG8 5 | £395,000 | £365,000 +8% since | £322,500 +22% since | £205,000 +93% since | £180,750 +119% 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 SG8 5, over the last five years (861 sales):
- What sells: 27% terraced, 27% detached, 22% flats, 18% semi-detached, 6% other.
- 25% sold leasehold, and 1% were new builds.
- 139 sales in the last twelve months, against 301 in the same twelve months five years ago.
