In cash terms the typical NP16 7 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £372,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 186%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2020. The market now sits about 20% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the NP16 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 2004 (+57.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−13.5%). 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) | +18.4% | +15.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.9% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The register shows 25 NP16 7 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 104 sales a year before the financial crisis and 62 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.
Reading the NP16 7 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 NP16 district median, NP16 7 sits 17% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around NP16 7
The local authority for NP16 7 is Forest of Dean, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £823 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £590 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,442 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Forest of Dean
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £372,500 median sold price, £823 a month is £9,876 a year, a gross yield of 2.7%: 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.

NP16's current homes for sale
The live side of the market holds 34 homes at the moment, listed by 4 agents publishing to HomesIndex.

The price of an extra bedroom in NP
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.
