In cash terms the typical NR7 home went from £53,000 in 1995 to £280,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 143%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 16% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NR7 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 (+26.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−11.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 42% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £330,000 against £160,000 for a flat, 2.1 times the price.

| Semi-detached | £280,000 | 89 | 8,278 |
| Terraced | £240,000 | 49 | 3,372 |
| Flats | £160,000 | 21 | 1,690 |
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.8% | −0.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
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 last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
NR7 recorded 468 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 708 sales a year before the financial crisis and 487 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.
The rental side of NR7
NR7 falls under Broadland, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £939 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £692 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,550, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Broadland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £280,000 median purchase price, a rent of £939 a month (£11,268 a year) works out at a 4.0% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: NR prices by size
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.
| 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%) |
| Terraced | £185,000 | £215,000 (+16%) | £245,000 (+14%) | £335,000 (+37%) | £423,750 (+26%) |
| Flat | £140,000 | £182,500 (+30%) | £280,000 (+53%) | — | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
