In cash terms the typical NR31 6 home went from £38,000 in 1995 to £168,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 104%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 30% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the NR31 6 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 (+35.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−17.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What NR31 6 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −17.8% | −19.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −2.4% | −6.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.7% | −1.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.6% | −1.1% |
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
Sales per year, counted
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.
NR31 6 recorded 53 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 251 sales a year before the financial crisis and 123 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 homes rent for around NR31 6
For renting purposes NR31 6 sits in Great Yarmouth. The ONS average private rent there is £833 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £585 a month here against £1,313 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Great Yarmouth
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £168,500 median purchase price, a rent of £833 a month (£9,996 a year) works out at a 5.9% 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.
How NR31 6 trades
This is a thin market: 53 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. Against the NR31 district median, NR31 6 sits 21% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

The price of an extra bedroom 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%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
