The most recent sales

Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to South Road, Aberystwyth values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. South Road, Aberystwyth is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 45 | 84.9% | £115,000 | £20,000 – £305,000 |
| Semi-detached | 6 | 11.3% | £97,000 | £61,500 – £220,000 |
| Detached | 2 | 3.8% | £65,000 | £65,000 – £134,250 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in South Road, Aberystwyth
2 of the sales on record are leasehold and 51 freehold — 3.8% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
The median leasehold sale is £53,284 and the median freehold sale £121,000 — a gap of +127.1%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 2 | 3.8% | £53,284 |
| Freehold | 51 | 96.2% | £121,000 |
A further 5 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Living in South Road, Aberystwyth
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Ceredigion, 27.4% of 39,437 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 19.1% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 320 | 0.8% |
| B | 2,461 | 6.2% |
| C | 8,007 | 20.3% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Ceredigion at £718 a month as of Jun 2026 — £558 for a one-bedroom home and £762 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £115,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.49% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
No street-level crime was published for SY23 in Jun 2026. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

The 2021 census counted 71,475 residents in Ceredigion across 30,891 households. 68.9% of those households own their home and 31.1% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

How South Road, Aberystwyth compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. South Road, Aberystwyth sits below that national figure — -27.0%.
Within Aberystwyth the street ranks 217 of 272 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £150,000 (-23.3%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,440 per square metre, across 23 of the 53 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £20,000 to £305,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
South Road, Aberystwyth sits in Ceredigion, in Wales.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Ceredigion at 6.9 times median local earnings of £32,688 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

What is the average house price in South Road, Aberystwyth?

When were South Road, Aberystwyth house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £100,000, set in 2002. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
