NP13 2 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside NP13 (Abertillery). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical NP13 2 home went from £19,500 in 1995 to £106,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 150%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 18% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the NP13 2 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 (+65.0% on the year before); the weakest, 1998 (−18.0%). 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) | −15.2% | −17.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.3% | −1.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.1% | +2.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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 NP13 2
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.
The register shows 25 NP13 2 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 109 sales a year before the financial crisis and 69 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.
Reading the NP13 2 market
This is a thin market: 25 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 NP13 district median, NP13 2 sits 15% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around NP13 2
NP13 2 falls under Blaenau Gwent, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £674 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £498 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £897, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Blaenau Gwent
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £106,000 median purchase price, a rent of £674 a month (£8,088 a year) works out at a 7.6% 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.

Will NP13 2 prices rise from here?

What you could buy in NP13 now
Turning to what is actually available: 11 homes on the market right now, from 2 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole NP13 district, not just NP13 2: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 27% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

Moving up a bedroom in NP: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NP 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.

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
The risers and the fallers
The spread across the NP area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
