Today's NP22 prices, from the sold record
The NP22 median stands at £131,000 for 2026, built from 66 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £139,400, modestly above it, the usual shape of a market with an expensive tail.
Price per square metre in NP22
The last five years of sales put NP22 at roughly £1,620 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.
For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so NP22 trades 54% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical NP22 home went from £30,000 in 1995 to £131,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 101%, 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 15% 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 NP22 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 (+53.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−19.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 65% of the typed total. In 2021, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £248,700 against £59,800 for a flat, 4.2 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.4% | −8.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.6% | −2.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
Over the last twelve months of data, 161 sales completed in NP22. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 295 sales a year before the financial crisis and 196 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.
What kind of market NP22 is
Among the 18 measurable districts of its area, NP22 ranks 16 by median price: towards the affordable end.
What tenants pay around NP22
For renting purposes NP22 sits in Blaenau Gwent. The ONS average private rent there is £674 a month (May 2026). 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 £131,000 median purchase price, a rent of £674 a month (£8,088 a year) works out at a 6.2% 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.
Common questions on NP22 (Rhymney)
Is NP22 (Rhymney) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in NP22 (Rhymney)?
Are property prices falling in NP22 (Rhymney)?
What happens to NP22 prices now?
The record answers a different question than "what happens next": the median is up 14% over five years in cash but down 10% after inflation. Put the volume chart beside the price chart before drawing conclusions, and allow for the register's lag behind actual completions.
What you could buy in NP22 now
Everything above is what homes in NP22 sold for. Turning to what is actually available: 13 homes on the market right now, from an agent publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 37% above the NP22 median sold price.
27% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

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.
Bedroom by bedroom: NP prices by size
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.
| 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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
