NP20 4 sold prices: where the market stands
In the NP20 4 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £170,000, from 25 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £229,100, sitting well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.
NP20 4 prices by floor area
Averaged across five years of sales, floor space in NP20 4 costs about £2,130 per square metre. Each sale's Energy Performance Certificate supplies the floor area, and pricing by the metre is what lets flats and houses share one scale.

In cash terms the typical NP20 4 home went from £43,000 in 1995 to £170,000 in 2026, roughly 4.0 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 82%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 37% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NP20 4 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 2002 (+34.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−22.7%). 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) | −22.7% | −24.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −3.9% | −8.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +0.4% | −3.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.2% | −1.6% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Sales activity in NP20 4
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.
NP20 4 recorded 25 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 184 sales a year before the financial crisis and 86 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.
How NP20 4 trades
Only 25 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NP20 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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 NP20 district median, NP20 4 sits 19% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around NP20 4
NP20 4 falls under Newport, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £952 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
£952 a month is £11,424 a year, which against the £170,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 6.7%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

What happens to NP20 4 prices now?

On the market in NP20 today
Turning to what is actually available: 286 homes on the market right now, from 8 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole NP20 district, not just NP20 4: live asking prices are collected per district.
38% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
What another bedroom costs in NP
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NP area, 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.

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
