In cash terms the typical NP26 3 home went from £64,000 in 1995 to £341,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 145%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NP26 3 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 2003 (+22.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−12.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.5% | +1.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.3% | −2.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.0% | +0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 59 sales completed in NP26 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 253 sales a year before the financial crisis and 125 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
How NP26 3 trades
Only 59 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NP26 3 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 NP26 district median, NP26 3 sits 8% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
The rental side of NP26 3
The local authority for NP26 3 is Monmouthshire, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £992 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £729 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,494, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Monmouthshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£992 a month is £11,904 a year, which against the £341,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.5%. 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.

NP26's current homes for sale
The live side of the market holds 20 homes at the moment, listed by 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole NP26 district, not just NP26 3: live asking prices are collected per district.
37% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
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
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the NP area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| 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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
