NR2 1 local market report Norwich

Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 1,163 sales registered with HM Land Registry in NR2 1 (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 data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

NR2 1 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside NR2 (Norwich). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

What a home in NR2 1 sells for

The 2026 median in NR2 1 is £440,000, from 11 registered sales; the mean, £876,000, sits well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.

For scale: the England and Wales median is £273,500, so NR2 1 trades 61% above the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical NR2 1 home went from £57,500 in 1995 to £440,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 260%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not just more expensive on paper.

Year-on-year change in the NR2 1 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 2023 (+82.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−35.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

NR2 1 recorded 11 sales in the last twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 48 sales a year over the last five years against 41 before the financial crisis. 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.

What homes rent for around NR2 1

NR2 1 falls under Norwich, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,152 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £784 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,594, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Set against the £440,000 median sold price, £1,152 a month is £13,824 a year, a gross yield of 3.1%: 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.

Will NR2 1 prices rise from here?

Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 84% over five years in cash and up 49% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the NR area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
