In cash terms the typical NR29 5 home went from £54,000 in 1995 to £240,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 104%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 33% 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 NR29 5 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 (+28.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−19.0%). 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) | −18.6% | −20.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −3.4% | −7.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −1.2% |
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.
Sales activity in NR29 5
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.
NR29 5 recorded 39 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 105 sales a year before the financial crisis and 61 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
The shape of the NR29 5 market
This is a thin market: 39 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.
What tenants pay around NR29 5
NR29 5 falls under North Norfolk, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £860 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £619 a month here against £1,349 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, North Norfolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £240,000 median purchase price, a rent of £860 a month (£10,320 a year) works out at a 4.3% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

Moving up a bedroom in NR: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the NR area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.

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

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