NR21 9 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside NR21 (Fakenham). 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.

In cash terms the typical NR21 9 home went from £44,500 in 1995 to £255,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 164%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 23% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the NR21 9 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 (+34.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−23.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.6% | −7.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.4% | −5.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.0% | −1.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
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.
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.
The register shows 21 NR21 9 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 112 sales a year before the financial crisis and 58 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.
What homes rent for around NR21 9
The local authority for NR21 9 is North Norfolk, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £860 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
Set against the £255,000 median sold price, £860 a month is £10,320 a year, a gross yield of 4.0%: 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.
Reading the NR21 9 market
This is a thin market: 21 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.

How much did a house sell for in NR21 9 (Barsham)?
Are property prices falling in NR21 9 (Barsham)?
Is NR21 9 (Barsham) a good place to buy a house?
Will NR21 9 prices rise from here?

NR21's current homes for sale
The live side of the market holds 126 homes at the moment, listed by 5 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole NR21 district, not just NR21 9: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 24% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
- Holt Road, FAKENHAM, Norfolk, NR21
- Wensum Court, Great Ryburgh, Fakenham

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.

Moving up a bedroom in NR: the cost
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%) |
