How Shearing Close, Dursley prices moved

The chart tracks the median Shearing Close, Dursley house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2014 to 2019. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Shearing Close, Dursley is £305,000 in 2019; the lowest is £212,000 in 2015. Across the full 6-year record the cash median has moved from £264,995 to £305,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £380,105, so the real change over the whole record is +5.0% — about +0.97% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +15.1% in cash against +5.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Shearing Close, Dursley is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Shearing Close, Dursley

2 of the sales on record are leasehold and 48 freehold — 4.0% 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 £137,500 and the median freehold sale £265,495 — a gap of +93.1%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

New build2142.0%£240,000

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -11.8%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

A further 3 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Stroud at £1,039 a month as of Jun 2026 — £742 for a one-bedroom home and £1,174 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £264,248 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.72% 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 GL11 in Jun 2026 by Gloucestershire. 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.

How Shearing Close, Dursley compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Shearing Close, Dursley sits above that national figure — +67.8%.

Within Dursley the street ranks 92 of 302 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £180,000 (+46.8%).

The full range on record runs from £110,000 to £550,000. 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.

Shearing Close, Dursley sits in Stroud, in the South West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Stroud at 9.1 times median local earnings of £36,363 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.

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Shearing Close, Dursley?

The highest yearly median on record is £305,000, set in 2019. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Shearing Close, Dursley?

£2,833 per square metre, from the 7 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 19 Dec 2024. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
