Summary
House prices in SY20: the typical (median) sold price is £200,000, close to the Wales average (£215,037) but well below the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index, July 2026). Over the last twelve months the local median is up 13.4%, ahead of Wales (+2.6% on the index), comparing 68 sales with 130, so a handful of homes can swing it. SY20 is a quiet market, with about 9 recorded sales a month. By property type, 41% were terraced homes (typically £153,000) and 39% were detached homes (typically £310,000).

Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on SY20: few sales, so go in with your eyes open
SY20 is a thin market, at roughly 9 sales a month, and prices are up on last year, but on few sales, so treat the rise as a hint rather than a trend.
For sellers, detached homes typically sold for £310,000 against £153,000 for terraced homes, which explains a spread of £104,800 to £416,000, so the closest sold homes of your type say much more than the middle; with so little to compare, give yourself extra time; cash buyers typically offer around 70–85% of market value (a rough guide, not a quote), which only makes sense if certainty is worth that much to you.
Sell houseWhen buying here, typical prices in SY20 sit close to the Wales average, and nudging up, so the latest sales matter more than last year’s.
Before you offer in SY20, check whether the home is at risk of flooding, planning applications nearby and the energy rating (EPC), and ask your conveyancer about the title.
Where the numbers are this loose, the free SY20 OfferCheck gives you something firmer to hold: flood, crime, planning and council tax, each with its source.

In plain English
What the Ceredigion (SY20) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £310,000 against £153,000 for terraced homes: about 2.0 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £104,800 and £416,000, so the median says little about any one home.
- Nearly all of these sales (97%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.
- This is a quiet district: only about 9 recorded sales a month.

Deprivation (IMD)
Area profile for SY20
The English Indices of Deprivation cover England only, so there is no decile to show for a Wales district. The equivalent measure is the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (Welsh Government), which is published on a different geography and a different scale. The two are not interchangeable, so we do not substitute one for the other.
