In cash terms the typical NE22 home went from £43,100 in 1995 to £200,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 113%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash.
Year-on-year change in the NE22 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 2014 (+27.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−14.6%). 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) | +11.7% | +9.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +7.4% | +2.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 33% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £282,500 against £74,000 for a flat, 3.8 times the price.

Sales activity in NE22
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 218 NE22 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 463 sales a year before the financial crisis and 279 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What kind of market NE22 is
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 homes rent for around NE22
For renting purposes NE22 sits in Northumberland. The ONS average private rent there is £679 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £483 a month here against £1,107 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Northumberland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£679 a month is £8,148 a year, which against the £200,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.1%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

The price of an extra bedroom in NE
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NE area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

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