Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on SP5: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

SP5 sees about 22 sales a month, so there is a fair body of evidence, but not enough of it for a trustworthy twelve-month trend.

When selling here, detached homes typically sold for £580,000 against £172,000 for flats, which explains a spread of £240,000 to £966,000, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; roughly 22 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.

Sell house

For buyers, on price, SP5 is well above the UK average, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

Worth checking before you commit: long-term flood risk, council tax (Band D is £2,765 a year) and planning applications nearby; your conveyancer should look at the title too.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free SP5 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the Dorset (SP5) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £580,000 against £172,000 for flats: about 3.4 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £240,000 and £966,000, so the median says little about any one home.
  • Nearly all of these sales (95%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
  • This is an active district: about 22 recorded sales a month.

Across the 12 sampled SP5 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 5 to decile 10, with a median of decile 6 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

SP5 4EA, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 6 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so SP5 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in SP5: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

What it costs to run a home in SP5, band by band

Dorset's council tax for 2026-27 set against the SP5 median sold price of £470,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the SP5 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The SP5 report: your questions

What is the average house price in SP5?
The typical (median) sold price in SP5 is £470,000, from 250 recorded sales between 5 September 2025 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £240,000 and £966,000. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in SP5?
Typical sold prices by type in SP5: detached homes £580,000 (133 sales), semi-detached homes £356,250 (54 sales), terraced homes £322,500 (34 sales), flats £172,000 (9 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in SP5?
SP5 is billed by Dorset, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,765 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
How up to date are the SP5 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is SP5 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 SP5 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 5 to decile 10, with a median of decile 6 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like SP5 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Can I see what an individual address in SP5 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 249 distinct addresses in the records we hold for SP5, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does SP5 cover my exact street?
SP5 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
