In cash terms the typical BD23 home went from £55,000 in 1995 to £277,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 132%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 18% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the BD23 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+37.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 43% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £492,500 against £180,000 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +0.9% | −1.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.0% | −1.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
How many homes change hands in BD23
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
The register shows 444 BD23 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 692 sales a year before the financial crisis and 492 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
The shape of the BD23 market
Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Among the 24 measurable districts of its area, BD23 ranks 2 by median price: firmly in the dearer tier.
Rents around BD23
BD23 falls under North Yorkshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £833 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £582 a month here against £1,333 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, North Yorkshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £277,500 median sold price, £833 a month is £9,996 a year, a gross yield of 3.6%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

The price of an extra bedroom in BD
What homes of each size actually sold for across the BD area, from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
