| 1996 | £24,500 | £51,669 | 185 |
| 1995 | £22,200 | £48,259 | 184 |
In cash terms the typical NP13 home went from £22,200 in 1995 to £125,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 159%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2025, and today's median remains roughly 8% under it: a 2025 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NP13 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 (+61.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.5%). 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) | −5.3% | −7.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +5.9% | +1.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.6% | +3.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 81% of the typed total. In 2010, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £175,000 against £40,000 for a flat, 4.4 times the price.

Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
NP13 recorded 164 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 330 sales a year before the financial crisis and 201 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.
The rental side of NP13
The local authority for NP13 is Blaenau Gwent, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £674 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £498 a month here against £897 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Blaenau Gwent
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £125,000 median purchase price, a rent of £674 a month (£8,088 a year) works out at a 6.5% 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.
How NP13 trades
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. Among the 18 measurable districts of its area, NP13 ranks 17 by median price: towards the affordable end.

Moving up a bedroom in NP: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the NP 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £285,000 | £370,000 (+30%) | £525,000 (+42%) | £683,000 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £200,000 | £215,000 (+7%) | £250,000 (+16%) | £320,000 (+28%) | £417,500 (+30%) |
| Terraced | £160,000 | £155,000 (-3%) | £170,000 (+10%) | £225,000 (+32%) | £293,750 (+31%) |
| Flat | £120,000 | £137,000 (+14%) | £200,000 (+46%) | — | — |
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.
