How Fire Fly Avenue, Swindon prices moved

The chart tracks the median Fire Fly Avenue, Swindon house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2011 to 2025. 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 Fire Fly Avenue, Swindon is £169,975 in 2017; the lowest is £110,000 in 2013. Across the full 15-year record the cash median has moved from £125,500 to £165,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £192,342, so the real change over the whole record is -12.4% — about -0.94% 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: +10.0% in cash against -20.3% 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.

Ownership and new build in Fire Fly Avenue, Swindon

383 of the sales on record are leasehold and 0 freehold — 100.0% 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

Freehold00.0%

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +1.3%. 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 58 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 Swindon at £1,091 a month as of Jun 2026 — £816 for a one-bedroom home and £1,212 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £149,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.73% 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 SN2, 236 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 95 violent, 7 burglary, 9 vehicle-related and 50 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.4 times busier.

Against the 233,407 residents the 2021 census counted in Swindon, that is 1.01 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.

Fire Fly Avenue, Swindon sits in Swindon, in the South West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Swindon at 7.0 times median local earnings of £40,280 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
