In cash terms the typical NP18 2 home went from £66,800 in 1995 to £402,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 177%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 17% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NP18 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 1999 (+27.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−20.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What NP18 2 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.9% | −0.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.2% | −1.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.9% | +1.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
NP18 2 recorded 36 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 155 sales a year before the financial crisis and 106 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.
What kind of market NP18 2 is
Only 36 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NP18 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Against the NP18 district median, NP18 2 sits 28% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
The rental side of NP18 2
For renting purposes NP18 2 sits in Newport. The ONS average private rent there is £952 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £694 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,356 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Newport
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £402,500 median purchase price, a rent of £952 a month (£11,424 a year) works out at a 2.8% 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: NP prices by size
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.
