In cash terms the typical NE34 9 home went from £33,000 in 1995 to £132,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 84%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2015. The market now sits about 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the NE34 9 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 (+35.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−12.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What NE34 9 has returned, per year

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 NE34 9
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The register shows 30 NE34 9 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 114 sales a year before the financial crisis and 75 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 NE34 9
The local authority for NE34 9 is South Tyneside, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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.
Set against the £132,000 median sold price, £726 a month is £8,712 a year, a gross yield of 6.6%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.
The shape of the NE34 9 market
This is a thin market: 30 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 NE34, this sector trades 20% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Searches that land here, answered
People often arrive here having searched an exact postcode, such as NE34 9QA. No public median exists at that scale (a full postcode is only a dozen-odd homes), but every registered sale at those addresses is plotted on the live map, with this page as the wider context.
Search phrases quoted verbatim from Google Search Console for this site (last 16 months); each is answered from the page's own Land Registry figures.
Will NE34 9 prices rise from here?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 32% over five years in cash and up 4% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: NE prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the NE area, straight 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.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
