Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

| 1995 | £33,400 | £72,606 | 78 |
In cash terms the typical NG3 3 home went from £33,400 in 1995 to £165,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 127%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2024, and today's median remains roughly 9% under it: a 2024 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NG3 3 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 2002 (+41.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−15.7%). 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) | −5.7% | −7.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.9% | 0.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.9% | +2.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
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.
The register shows 25 NG3 3 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 149 sales a year before the financial crisis and 56 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 NG3 3 trades
Only 25 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NG3 3 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the NG3 district median, NG3 3 sits 23% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around NG3 3
The local authority for NG3 3 is Nottingham, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,006 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £730 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,452, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Nottingham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £165,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,006 a month (£12,072 a year) works out at a 7.3% 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.

What another bedroom costs in NG
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NG area, 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.
