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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beechcrest | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector DH1 4 | – | £487,500 | £420,000 | £341,250 | £335,000 |
| Durham | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £197,225 |
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 4, over the last five years (520 sales):
- What sells: 36% terraced, 24% semi-detached, 20% detached, 13% flats, 7% other.
- 15% sold leasehold.
- 80 sales in the last twelve months, against 121 in the same twelve months five years ago.
