In cash terms the typical NE15 6 home went from £28,800 in 1995 to £167,200 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 167%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2016, and today's median remains roughly 20% under it: a 2016 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NE15 6 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 2010 (+47.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−34.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +7.9% | +5.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.9% | −2.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.1% | −2.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.3% | +0.5% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
NE15 6 recorded 36 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 99 sales a year recently, against 102 a year before 2008. 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.
How NE15 6 trades
This is a thin market: 36 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. 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.
What tenants pay around NE15 6
The local authority for NE15 6 is Newcastle upon Tyne, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,204 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £806 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,825 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Newcastle upon Tyne
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £167,200 median purchase price, a rent of £1,204 a month (£14,448 a year) works out at a 8.6% 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.

How much did a house sell for in NE15 6 (Lemington)?

The price of an extra bedroom in NE
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the NE area. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £239,250 | £322,500 (+35%) | £498,100 (+54%) | £700,000 (+41%) |
