How this area has changed
Typical prices for detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Redmill | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector CO3 4 | £464,500 | £397,000 +17% since | £327,000 +42% since | £249,000 +87% since | £240,000 +94% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in CO3 4, over the last five years (512 sales):
- What sells: 46% detached, 45% semi-detached, 4% terraced, 3% flats, 2% other.
- 4% sold leasehold.
- 85 sales in the last twelve months, against 147 in the same twelve months five years ago.
