| 1996 | £48,000 | £101,230 | 117 |
| 1995 | £47,900 | £104,127 | 110 |
In cash terms the typical ST5 2 home went from £47,900 in 1995 to £227,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 118%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2025. The market now sits about 11% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the ST5 2 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 2020 (+80.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−36.8%). 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) | −9.0% | −11.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.7% | −0.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
How many homes change hands in ST5 2
The year-by-year sales count
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 42 sales completed in ST5 2. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 126 sales a year recently, against 141 a year before 2008. 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 ST5 2
ST5 2 falls under Newcastle-under-Lyme, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £826 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £574 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,301, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Newcastle-under-Lyme
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£826 a month is £9,912 a year, which against the £227,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.4%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
What kind of market ST5 2 is
Only 42 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes ST5 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Within ST5, this sector trades 21% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

The price of an extra bedroom in ST
What homes of each size actually sold for across the ST 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 | — | £240,000 | £334,950 (+40%) | £500,000 (+49%) | £687,500 (+38%) |
| Semi-detached | £165,000 | £180,000 (+9%) | £228,000 (+27%) | £310,000 (+36%) | £402,500 (+30%) |

| Flat | £95,000 | £125,000 (+32%) | £185,000 (+48%) | — | — |
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.
