How School Road, Salisbury prices moved

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for School Road, Salisbury is £475,000 in 2014; the lowest is £77,000 in 1997. Across the full 29-year record the cash median has moved from £77,000 to £400,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £163,263, so the real change over the whole record is +150.3% — about +3.33% 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: -15.8% in cash against -40.0% 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. School Road, Salisbury is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in School Road, Salisbury

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 135 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold00.0%
Freehold135100.0%£307,500
New build85.9%£245,000
Existing home12794.1%£308,700
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -20.6%. 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 2 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 Dorset at £1,046 a month as of Jun 2026 — £724 for a one-bedroom home and £1,178 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £307,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.08% 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 SP5 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.

How School Road, Salisbury compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. School Road, Salisbury sits above that national figure — +95.2%.

Within Salisbury the street ranks 384 of 1543 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £210,000 (+46.4%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,785 per square metre, across 8 of the 135 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 £49,500 to £815,000. 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.

School Road, Salisbury sits in Dorset, in the South West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Dorset at 9.9 times median local earnings of £35,311 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 School Road, Salisbury?

The median price paid in School Road, Salisbury across every sale on the register is £307,500. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in School Road, Salisbury?

135 sales are on record for School Road, Salisbury, the most recent completing on 20 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have School Road, Salisbury house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose -15.8% between 2014 and 2025. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -40.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were School Road, Salisbury house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £475,000, set in 2014. 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 School Road, Salisbury?

£3,785 per square metre, from the 8 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 20 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.
