In cash terms the typical NN5 7 home went from £33,200 in 1995 to £212,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 194%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2025; the current median sits about 20% below that. Someone who bought at the 2025 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the NN5 7 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 2000 (+22.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−18.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What NN5 7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −18.3% | −20.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.2% | −3.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.0% | +0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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 NN5 7
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
NN5 7 recorded 38 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 210 sales a year before the financial crisis and 92 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The shape of the NN5 7 market
This is a thin market: 38 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. 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 NN5 district median, NN5 7 sits 18% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around NN5 7
The local authority for NN5 7 is West Northamptonshire, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,072 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £744 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,665, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £212,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,072 a month (£12,864 a year) works out at a 6.1% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: NN prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the NN 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.
