SA12 recorded house prices and local checks

SA12 has 710 recorded standard residential transactions in the 24-month window 2024-10-01 to 2026-09-30. The median recorded sale is £165,000. These are completed sale records, not asking prices or an estimate of a particular home.

Semi-detached account for the largest published group here: 345 sales, with a median of £170,000. The sample includes 45 new-build and 665 existing-home transactions. A change in that mix can change the median without the same home changing value.

Only groups with at least 10 records are shown. Quartiles use linear interpolation; the middle 50% is a distribution of recorded prices, not a prediction interval. The page requires at least 30 transactions and two publishable home types.

Detached have the highest published type median in SA12, £290,000, compared with £130,000 for terraced. The difference is £160,000; it compares different homes, not the effect of changing a home's type.

Existing-home sales form 93.7% of this sample. The new-build subset has 45 records.

Buying tax at the recorded median

Examples use £165,000 and completion on 6 November 2026, for an individual UK-resident buyer. Other costs, linked transactions, company purchases and special reliefs are excluded. First-time status must meet the official conditions.

• First-time buyer: LTT £0 · official rates (2022-10-10)
• Buyer replacing / owning only this home: LTT £0 · official rates (2022-10-10)
• Additional home: LTT £8,250 · official rates (2024-12-11)

Wales has no separate first-time buyer LTT relief. Its example uses the standard Welsh rates.

A missing area page or figure means we do not have enough suitable data here. It does not establish that a place is safe, affordable or free of restrictions.

These pages do not yet provide verified flood-area percentages and warning history, typical property tax bands or crime counts for the exact area. Welsh school and council-tax coverage also remains incomplete. No local figure is inferred from an England-wide or neighbouring-area figure.
