In cash terms the typical NE29 7 home went from £28,200 in 1995 to £190,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 210%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 9% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NE29 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 (+36.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2017 (−12.1%). 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) | +11.6% | +9.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +8.7% | +3.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.9% | +2.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.1% | +1.3% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
How many homes change hands in NE29 7
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
NE29 7 recorded 21 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 145 sales a year before the financial crisis and 95 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.
Rents around NE29 7
The local authority for NE29 7 is North Tyneside, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £838 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £577 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,197 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, North Tyneside
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £190,000 median purchase price, a rent of £838 a month (£10,056 a year) works out at a 5.3% 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.
The shape of the NE29 7 market
Only 21 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NE29 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.

The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the NE area. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
