In cash terms the typical NE34 7 home went from £58,000 in 1995 to £180,000 in 2026, roughly 3.1 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 43%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2005. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the NE34 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 2003 (+27.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−10.2%). 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) | −4.0% | −6.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.4% | −0.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
NE34 7 recorded 37 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 136 sales a year before the financial crisis and 90 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.
How NE34 7 trades
This is a thin market: 37 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. Against the NE34 district median, NE34 7 sits 8% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around NE34 7
NE34 7 falls under South Tyneside, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £726 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £508 a month here against £1,006 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, South Tyneside
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£726 a month is £8,712 a year, which against the £180,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.8%. 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.

NE34's current homes for sale

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Bedroom by bedroom: NE prices by size
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%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
