NG31 6 is one sector of NG31 (Grantham): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

The NG31 6 median stands at £130,000 for 2026, built from 25 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £142,900, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.
What a square metre costs in NG31 6
A square metre of NG31 6 home has cost about £1,620 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.

| 1995 | £27,200 | £59,129 | 66 |
In cash terms the typical NG31 6 home went from £27,200 in 1995 to £130,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 120%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2008; the current median sits about 30% below that. Someone who bought at the 2008 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the NG31 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 2003 (+35.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−33.5%). 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) | −3.7% | −6.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.0% | +0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.8% | −1.0% |
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.
Sales activity in NG31 6
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.
NG31 6 recorded 25 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 131 sales a year before the financial crisis and 48 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 NG31 6
For renting purposes NG31 6 sits in South Kesteven. The ONS average private rent there is £838 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £580 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,312 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, South Kesteven
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £130,000 median sold price, £838 a month is £10,056 a year, a gross yield of 7.7%: 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.
How NG31 6 trades
Only 25 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NG31 6 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. Within NG31, this sector trades 41% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

What another bedroom costs in NG
Real sold prices by size across the NG 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
