Dalton market report YO7, Thirsk
The standing YO7 (Dalton) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 11,073 sales registered with HM Land Registry in YO7 (Thirsk) 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.
Covers registered sales to July 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: the 2026 median for YO7 (Thirsk) is £272,500, from 116 registered sales, up 1% on five years earlier; the mean is £316,600, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,000 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 11,073 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
YO7 is the postcode district covering Thirsk, Dalton, Hambleton in Thirsk. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

What YO7 homes really sell for
Take the 116 registered 2026 sales in YO7 and the middle price, the median, is £272,500. The mean lands at £316,600, well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.
House prices per square metre in YO7
Measured by floor area, the last five years of YO7 sales average about £3,000 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.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, YO7 runs 4% below it.

In cash terms the typical YO7 home went from £59,000 in 1995 to £272,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 112%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 20% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the YO7 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 (+42.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−5.1%). 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 detached houses dominate the record here, 39% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £405,000 against £101,000 for a flat, 4.0 times the price.

What YO7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.9% | −3.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.3% | −4.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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 YO7
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.
The last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
YO7 recorded 277 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 329 sales a year recently, against 405 a year before 2008. 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 YO7
YO7 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 £272,500 median sold price, £833 a month is £9,996 a year, a gross yield of 3.7%: 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.

Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is roughly flat over five years in cash but down 20% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.

Moving up a bedroom in YO: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the YO area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
| 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%) |
| Terraced | £182,000 | £210,000 (+15%) | £242,500 (+15%) | £318,000 (+31%) | £427,850 (+35%) |
| Flat | £135,000 | £180,000 (+33%) | £254,750 (+42%) | £300,000 (+18%) | — |
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.

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.
