Cayton market report YO11 1, Scarborough
The YO11 1 (Cayton) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 2,206 sales registered with HM Land Registry in YO11 1 (Scarborough) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 26 registered 2026 sales put the YO11 1 (Scarborough) median at £142,500, up 6% on five years earlier, with a mean of £153,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £1,800 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 2,206 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
A postcode sector like YO11 1 is a single group of streets within YO11 (Scarborough), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

| 1995 | £39,000 | £84,780 | 65 |
In cash terms the typical YO11 1 home went from £39,000 in 1995 to £142,500 in 2026, roughly 3.7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 68%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2008; the current median sits about 27% below that. Someone who bought at the 2008 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the YO11 1 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 2004 (+52.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−17.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.3% | +0.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.3% | −1.5% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
YO11 1 recorded 26 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 114 sales a year before the financial crisis and 47 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.
Reading the YO11 1 market
This is a thin market: 26 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 YO11, this sector trades 16% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
Rents around YO11 1
YO11 1 falls under North Yorkshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £833 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £582 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,333 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, North Yorkshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £142,500 median sold price, £833 a month is £9,996 a year, a gross yield of 7.0%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

The price of an extra bedroom in YO
What homes of each size actually sold for across the YO 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £270,746 | £362,000 (+34%) | £546,000 (+51%) | £702,500 (+29%) |
| Semi-detached | £190,000 | £220,000 (+16%) | £269,950 (+23%) | £370,000 (+37%) | £445,000 (+20%) |

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.
