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 ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Merevale Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |

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 NE37 3, over the last five years (398 sales):
- What sells: 57% flats, 20% terraced, 13% semi-detached, 7% other, 3% detached.
- 61% sold leasehold.
- 70 sales in the last twelve months, against 86 in the same twelve months five years ago.
