What buyers actually paid in DN37
The 2026 median for DN37 is £220,000, taken from 126 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £262,800, a long way above it, which tells you a few very expensive sales are pulling the average up.
Price per square metre in DN37
Measured by floor area, the last five years of DN37 sales average about £2,170 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

A typical DN37 home, priced year by year (1995 to 2026)
Year by year: the median as it was recorded, and the same figure brought into today's money with ONS CPIH, which is where "did homes get dearer" actually gets answered. Hover shows each year; the legend isolates a series.

| 1995 | £48,000 | £104,345 | 273 |
In cash terms the typical DN37 home went from £48,000 in 1995 to £220,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 111%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 8% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DN37 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 (+39.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−7.3%). 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 detached houses dominate the record here, 43% of the typed total. In 2023, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £303,000 against £68,000 for a flat, 4.5 times the price.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | +10.0% | +7.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.1% | −0.7% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +4.6% | +0.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.9% | +0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 249 sales completed in DN37. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 455 sales a year before the financial crisis and 274 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 DN37 market
Detached homes made up 48% of last year's sales, an unusually house-heavy mix that keeps the median well above what a flat or terrace here goes for. DN37 sits 8 of 32 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.
What tenants pay around DN37
DN37 falls under North East Lincolnshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £618 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £435 a month for a typical one-bed to £915 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, North East Lincolnshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £220,000 median sold price, £618 a month is £7,416 a year, a gross yield of 3.4%: 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 "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

DN37: the homes on offer and the homes that go
Sellers of detached homes in DN37 have company: 69% of current listings against 43% of recent sales. When a type is offered faster than it sells, the buyer usually holds the better hand.
| Type | Share of homes for sale now | Share of sales, 2024 and 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Detached | 69% | 43% |
| Semi-detached | 23% | 44% |
| Terraced | 8% | 13% |
Listings are the homes agents publish to HomesIndex today; sales are HM Land Registry registrations. A listing whose type does not say detached, semi-detached, terraced or flat (a plain "house", a bungalow, a park home) is left out of the listing shares.
The DN37 sales calendar
September is when DN37 changes hands most (11.9% of the 1,639 sales dated 2021 to 2025); April is the quiet end at 6.3%. The gap between the two is wide enough to plan around: completion follows the agreed sale by weeks, so the busiest month for completions points to deals done earlier, and a seller wanting several bidders should list ahead of it.
Sales by month, 2021 to 2025
| Month | Sales | Share |
|---|---|---|
| January | 104 | 6.3% |
| February | 104 | 6.3% |

The price of an extra bedroom in DN
Real sold prices by size across the DN 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 | £185,000 | £209,725 (+13%) | £245,000 (+17%) | £308,750 (+26%) | £400,000 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £140,000 | £154,725 (+11%) | £165,348 (+7%) | £210,000 (+27%) | £265,000 (+26%) |
| Terraced | £105,000 | £118,000 (+12%) | £110,000 (-7%) | £145,000 (+32%) | £175,000 (+21%) |
| Flat | £86,000 | £103,750 (+21%) | £125,000 (+20%) | — | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
