In cash terms the typical DN15 7 home went from £31,500 in 1995 to £145,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 112%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2006; the current median sits about 12% below that. Someone who bought at the 2006 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the DN15 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 2004 (+29.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−11.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.8% | +3.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.2% | −0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
DN15 7 recorded 39 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 191 sales a year before the financial crisis and 71 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
What tenants pay around DN15 7
For renting purposes DN15 7 sits in North Lincolnshire. The ONS average private rent there is £645 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £465 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,047, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, North Lincolnshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £145,000 median sold price, £645 a month is £7,740 a year, a gross yield of 5.3%: 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.
Reading the DN15 7 market
This is a thin market: 39 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Within DN15, this sector trades 9% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Bedroom by bedroom: DN prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the DN area, 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 | — | £210,000 | £282,972 (+35%) | £405,000 (+43%) | £520,000 (+28%) |
| Semi-detached | £145,000 | £158,000 (+9%) | £178,000 (+13%) | £245,000 (+38%) | £312,500 (+28%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
