There are no valuations, estimates or asking prices in it.

Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

In short: the 2026 median for NE23 3 (Cramlington) is £232,500, from 28 registered sales, up 2% on five years earlier; the mean is £238,700, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,680 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 3,762 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.

A postcode sector like NE23 3 is a single group of streets within NE23 (Cramlington), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

Today's NE23 3 prices, from the sold record

Take the 28 registered 2026 sales in NE23 3 and the middle price, the median, is £232,500. The mean lands at £238,700, almost on top of it, so sales bunch tightly around the typical price.

Price per square metre in NE23 3

A square metre of NE23 3 home has cost about £2,680 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.

The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts NE23 3 18% below the country at large.

In cash terms the typical NE23 3 home went from £57,000 in 1995 to £232,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 88%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 23% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+38.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−13.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

What NE23 3 has returned, per year

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

NE23 3 recorded 28 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 169 sales a year before the financial crisis and 60 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.

Reading the NE23 3 market

This is a thin market: 28 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. Within NE23, this sector trades 29% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

The rental side of NE23 3

For renting purposes NE23 3 sits in Northumberland. The ONS average private rent there is £679 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £483 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,107 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

Against the £232,500 median purchase price, a rent of £679 a month (£8,148 a year) works out at a 3.5% 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.

Asked and answered: NE23 3 (Seghill)

Are NE23 3 prices heading up or down?

That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is roughly flat over five years in cash but down 19% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.
