How this area has changed

Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area Now 5 years ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Rydal Road – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector DH2 3 £182,500 £139,000 +31% since £150,000 +22% since £127,000 +44% since £139,000 +31% since
Chester-Le-Street – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales £137,725

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.
