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
Lime Road – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector DL17 8 £117,500 £100,250 +17% since £76,000 +55% since £77,750 +51% since £79,950 +47% since
Sedgefield – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales £105,497

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.
