In cash terms the typical DL14 7 home went from £32,000 in 1995 to £135,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 94%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 30% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the DL14 7 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 2003 (+68.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−26.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What DL14 7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.2% | −4.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.4% | −2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.1% | +1.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −1.3% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
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 register shows 33 DL14 7 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 153 sales a year before the financial crisis and 70 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.
Reading the DL14 7 market
Only 33 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DL14 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.
The rental side of DL14 7
The local authority for DL14 7 is County Durham, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £638 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £447 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £982, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, County Durham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £135,000 median purchase price, a rent of £638 a month (£7,656 a year) works out at a 5.7% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

The price of an extra bedroom in DL
Real sold prices by size across the DL area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £205,000 | £282,250 (+38%) | £444,995 (+58%) | £625,000 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £147,250 | £147,000 (0%) | £185,000 (+26%) | £282,000 (+52%) | £380,000 (+35%) |

| Flat | £85,000 | £118,000 (+39%) | £205,000 (+74%) | — | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
