In cash terms the typical NE42 6 home went from £47,500 in 1995 to £163,700 in 2026, roughly 3.4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 59%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 39% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NE42 6 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 (+28.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2022 (−14.7%). 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) | −0.8% | −3.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.8% | −5.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +0.9% | −2.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +0.9% | −1.9% |
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.
How many homes change hands in NE42 6
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 30 sales completed in NE42 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 124 sales a year before the financial crisis and 64 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.
What tenants pay around NE42 6
The local authority for NE42 6 is Northumberland, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £679 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £483 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,107, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Northumberland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £163,700 median purchase price, a rent of £679 a month (£8,148 a year) works out at a 5.0% 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 NE42 6 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.

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.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
