In cash terms the typical NR33 8 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £262,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 157%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 11% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NR33 8 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 (+38.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−6.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What NR33 8 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.5% | +0.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.7% | −2.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
How many homes change hands in NR33 8
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
NR33 8 recorded 80 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 424 sales a year before the financial crisis and 173 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 NR33 8
NR33 8 falls under East Suffolk, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £834 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £597 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,332 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, East Suffolk
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £262,500 median purchase price, a rent of £834 a month (£10,008 a year) works out at a 3.8% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in NR
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the NR area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
