How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bishops Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector DH1 2 | – | £145,000 | £144,475 | £90,000 | £145,000 |
| Durham | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £106,995 |
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 DH1 2, over the last five years (666 sales):
- What sells: 38% semi-detached, 27% detached, 26% terraced, 5% flats, 4% other.
- 8% sold leasehold, and 17% were new builds.
- 95 sales in the last twelve months, against 149 in the same twelve months five years ago.
