How this compares

Averages cover every recorded sale in DL12 9DZ (2016–2025) and are not adjusted for house-price changes over that period — where the market has risen, older sales pull the average below today’s values, so treat this as a rough guide rather than a like-for-like comparison.

Full transaction history

This address covers more than one registered unit or interest (for example separate flats, or a leasehold and the freehold), often recorded on the same date. These are separate Land Registry entries, not repeat sales of one home.
