Price per square metre in NE38 0

In cash terms the typical NE38 0 home went from £43,000 in 1995 to £135,000 in 2026, roughly 3.1 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 44%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 33% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NE38 0 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 (+30.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−10.0%). 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) | −6.1% | −8.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.8% | −3.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.8% | −1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +0.9% | −1.9% |
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.
Sales activity in NE38 0
Sales per year, counted
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 37 NE38 0 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 182 sales a year before the financial crisis and 81 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 NE38 0 trades
Only 37 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NE38 0 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the NE38 district median, NE38 0 sits 16% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around NE38 0
For renting purposes NE38 0 sits in Sunderland. The ONS average private rent there is £701 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £519 a month here against £1,073 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Sunderland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £135,000 median sold price, £701 a month is £8,412 a year, a gross yield of 6.2%: 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: NE prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the NE area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.
