Roughly £367,000 buys the average house here. That's the median over about a hundred and ten sales in the last year. Detached homes ran around £510,000. The handful of flats came in near £188,000. The price of a 1970s semi in a village where most houses are 1970s semis.
Break the headline down by property type and the picture sharpens. Detached houses sit around £510,000 and carry the volume at the top end. Semi-detached homes, the village workhorse, run to about £340,000. Terraced houses cluster around £315,000. Flats are scarce, and the few that trade come in around £188,000. About a hundred and ten transactions went through over the year, which is a working market rather than a heated one. Steady turnover, no frenzy, no queues outside the open viewings.
Council tax sits with band C as the most common band, which puts most of the village in the middle of the schedule rather than at either end. Under one in five homes fall into the cheapest two bands of A or B, so the genuinely cheap entry point is thin on the ground. The rest of the stock spreads up through D, E and F, with a small tail at G and a handful at H. For most buyers, that means a council tax bill in the middle of the range rather than a windfall.
For renters, the village itself produces too few private lettings to publish a Stubbington-specific figure honestly, so the published reference is the wider area. Typical private rent across the Fareham area runs at about £1,210 a month, up roughly four percent on the year. One-beds rent at around £854 a month, two-beds at around £1,103, three-beds at around £1,366, and homes with four or more bedrooms at around £1,993. Those are the local-authority averages. The village itself, with roughly one in five homes rented and a large slice of that social, is a sellers-and-owners place rather than a renters' one.
Set against the typical local household income of about £64,700, the headline house price comes to roughly five-and-a-half times income. That is a stretch on a single salary and a more manageable proposition on two. It is the kind of price point reached by selling a smaller house in a noisier place and bringing the equity across, not by stretching a first-time-buyer mortgage to its limit. The buyer profile is downsizers, second-movers, and remote-working couples who have already done the maths on what they get for the money.
If Hamble-le-Rice was the dream and Emsworth was the cope, Stubbington is the mortgage you actually got. Above average without crossing into south-coast luxury, which is exactly what the price tag implies and exactly what the rest of the village confirms.
