In cash terms the typical YO8 9 home went from £52,500 in 1995 to £282,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 147%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2019. The market now sits about 6% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the YO8 9 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 (+29.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−7.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What YO8 9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.7% | +3.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.2% | −0.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.6% | +1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Sales activity in YO8 9
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 106 sales completed in YO8 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 263 sales a year before the financial crisis and 197 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.

The rental side of YO8 9
YO8 9 falls under North Yorkshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £833 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £582 a month here against £1,333 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, North Yorkshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £282,000 median sold price, £833 a month is £9,996 a year, a gross yield of 3.5%: 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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Bedroom by bedroom: YO prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the YO 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 | — | £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%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
