NR33 0 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside NR33 (Lowestoft). 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.

The NR33 0 median stands at £185,000 for 2026, built from 46 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £210,900, a little above it, the familiar pattern where pricier homes stretch the average.
Price per square metre in NR33 0
Measured by floor area, the last five years of NR33 0 sales average about £2,210 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

In cash terms the typical NR33 0 home went from £35,000 in 1995 to £185,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 143%, 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 19% 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 NR33 0 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 (+32.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−11.0%). 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) | 0.0% | −2.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.5% | −4.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.6% | −0.2% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
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.
The register shows 46 NR33 0 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 233 sales a year before the financial crisis and 109 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.
Rents around NR33 0
For renting purposes NR33 0 sits in East Suffolk. The ONS average private rent there is £834 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £597 a month here against £1,332 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, East Suffolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £185,000 median purchase price, a rent of £834 a month (£10,008 a year) works out at a 5.4% 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 NR33 0 trades
This is a thin market: 46 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. Within NR33, this sector trades 20% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Bedroom by bedroom: NR prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NR area, 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.
| 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%) |

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
