How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dunster Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector SO16 8 | £275,000 | £226,000 +22% since | £187,500 +47% since | £149,000 +85% since | £140,000 +96% 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 SO16 8, over the last five years (773 sales):
- What sells: 47% terraced, 32% detached, 17% semi-detached, 4% flats, 1% other.
- 4% sold leasehold, and 18% were new builds.
- 113 sales in the last twelve months, against 226 in the same twelve months five years ago.
