How this area has changed

Typical prices for flats, 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
Islestone	–	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales
Postcode sector NE9 5	£126,000	£118,000 +7% since	£99,000 +27% since	£88,000 +43% since	£109,700 +15% since
Gateshead	£103,000	£88,800 +16% since	£93,750 +10% since	£82,000 +26% since	£89,000 +16% since

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.

Sector NE9 5 Gateshead Typical price each year, flats. A gap is a year with too few sales.
