NR21 7 sold prices: where the market stands
Take the 12 registered 2026 sales in NR21 7 and the middle price, the median, is £255,000. The mean lands at £352,600, well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.
NR21 7 prices by floor area

In cash terms the typical NR21 7 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £255,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 161%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2016. The market now sits about 22% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the NR21 7 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 2016 (+40.3% on the year before); the weakest, 1996 (−33.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +4.5% | +2.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +0.8% | −2.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 12 sales completed in NR21 7. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 72 sales a year before the financial crisis and 41 a year over the last five. 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 kind of market NR21 7 is
This is a thin market: 12 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.
The rental side of NR21 7
For renting purposes NR21 7 sits in North Norfolk. The ONS average private rent there is £860 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £619 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,349 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, North Norfolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£860 a month is £10,320 a year, which against the £255,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.0%. 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.

What another bedroom costs in NR
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the NR 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 | — | £280,000 | £375,246 (+34%) | £545,000 (+45%) | £750,000 (+38%) |
| Semi-detached | £210,000 | £245,000 (+17%) | £289,950 (+18%) | £375,000 (+29%) | £515,000 (+37%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
