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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Howe Square | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector SR4 8 | £155,000 | £110,000 +41% since | £103,000 +50% since | £122,000 +27% since | £105,995 +46% 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 SR4 8, over the last five years (548 sales):
- What sells: 68% semi-detached, 13% terraced, 11% detached, 4% flats, 4% other.
- 26% sold leasehold.
- 90 sales in the last twelve months, against 144 in the same twelve months five years ago.
