non-geographic market report NR18, Norwich
The standing NR18 (non-geographic) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 12,632 sales registered with HM Land Registry in NR18 (Norwich) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to July 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: a typical NR18 (Norwich) home changed hands for £285,000 in 2026 (median of 123 registered sales, up 1% on five years earlier), with the mean at £299,600, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,410 per square metre over the last five years. Source: 12,632 completed sales on the HM Land Registry record since 1995, updated with each monthly release. No valuations, no asking prices.
The postcode district NR18 covering non-geographic sits in Norwich. A district is the workhorse unit for reading a market: local enough to be meaningful, busy enough that the medians rest on a steady flow of sales.

Price per square metre in NR18

In cash terms the typical NR18 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £285,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 162%, 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 21% 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 NR18 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 (+27.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−4.9%). 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 detached houses dominate the record here, 45% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £360,000 against £142,500 for a flat, 2.5 times the price.

What NR18 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.2% | −2.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.1% | −4.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.0% | −1.4% |
| 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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
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 last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
NR18 recorded 286 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 371 sales a year recently, against 402 a year before 2008. 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 rental side of NR18
For renting purposes NR18 sits in South Norfolk. The ONS average private rent there is £981 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £696 a month here against £1,574 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, South Norfolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £285,000 median sold price, £981 a month is £11,772 a year, a gross yield of 4.1%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

What another bedroom costs in NR
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NR 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £280,000 | £375,246 (+34%) | £545,000 (+45%) | £750,000 (+38%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
