In cash terms the typical NP26 4 home went from £48,100 in 1995 to £270,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 158%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 23% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NP26 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 2004 (+46.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2015 (−13.6%). 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) | +3.8% | +1.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.7% | +1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
Sales activity in NP26 4
Sales per year, counted
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 43 NP26 4 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 132 sales a year before the financial crisis and 96 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.
The shape of the NP26 4 market
Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NP26 4 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. Within NP26, this sector trades 15% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What tenants pay around NP26 4
For renting purposes NP26 4 sits in Monmouthshire. The ONS average private rent there is £992 a month (May 2026). 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 £270,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.4%. 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.

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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £285,000 | £370,000 (+30%) | £525,000 (+42%) | £683,000 (+30%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
