How this area has changed

Typical prices for semi-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 ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Sharp Crescent – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector DH1 1 £191,250 £144,750 +32% since £136,000 +41% since £110,000 +74% since £129,500 +48% since
Durham – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales £124,972

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.
