How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dovedale | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £144,950 |
| Postcode sector SN25 2 | £153,000 | £145,000 +6% since | £132,995 +15% since | £105,750 +45% since | £139,950 +9% 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.
How homes change hands in SN25 2, over the last five years (1,723 sales):
- What sells: 30% flats, 26% terraced, 24% detached, 18% semi-detached, 2% other.
- 32% sold leasehold, and 7% were new builds.
- 261 sales in the last twelve months, against 650 in the same twelve months five years ago.
