How South Street, Faversham prices moved
The chart tracks the median South Street, Faversham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2008. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 1 | £131,500 | £291,992 |
| 2000s | 3 | £276,250 | £503,246 |
The highest yearly median on record for South Street, Faversham is £444,500 in 2004; the lowest is £98,750 in 2000. Across the full 11-year record the cash median has moved from £131,500 to £276,250.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £272,669, so the real change over the whole record is +70.1% — about +5.45% 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: +110.1% in cash against +70.1% 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.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. South Street, Faversham is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in South Street, Faversham
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 80 freehold — 0.0% 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Ashford, 52.2% of 63,745 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.3% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Ashford at £1,244 a month as of Jun 2026 — £891 for a one-bedroom home and £1,401 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £261,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.71% 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.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of ME13, 90 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 27 violent, 0 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 21 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.9 times quieter.
Against the 132,747 residents the 2021 census counted in Ashford, that is 0.68 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around South Street, Faversham

How South Street, Faversham compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. South Street, Faversham sits above that national figure — +66.0%.
Within Faversham the street ranks 142 of 427 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £184,625 (+41.6%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,032 per square metre, across 1 of the 80 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 £65,000 to £1,150,000. 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 Street, Faversham sits in Ashford, in the South East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Ashford at 10.2 times median local earnings of £33,979 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in South Street, Faversham?

When were South Street, Faversham house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £444,500, set in 2004. 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 South Street, Faversham?
£1,032 per square metre, from the 1 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.

The latest sale shown here completed on 27 May 2026. 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.
