How this area has changed

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

Postcode sector NN8 2 £230,000 £195,000 +18% since £152,500 +51% since £111,621 +106% since £127,500 +80% since
Wellingborough – £215,000 £167,500 £125,000 £132,000

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.
