How Hollycroft, Driffield prices moved

The chart tracks the median Hollycroft, Driffield house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1999 to 2021. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Hollycroft, Driffield is £185,000 in 2021; the lowest is £44,500 in 1999. Across the full 23-year record the cash median has moved from £44,500 to £185,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £90,672, so the real change over the whole record is +157.8% — about +4.40% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +35.0% in cash against -6.3% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in East Riding of Yorkshire at £724 a month as of Jun 2026 — £502 for a one-bedroom home and £799 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £122,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.12% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of YO25, 53 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 23 violent, 0 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 9 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.2 times quieter.

Against the 342,215 residents the 2021 census counted in East Riding of Yorkshire, that is 0.15 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Within Driffield the street ranks 382 of 572 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £132,500 (-7.9%).

The full range on record runs from £37,000 to £260,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Hollycroft, Driffield sits in East Riding of Yorkshire, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in East Riding of Yorkshire at 6.4 times median local earnings of £35,020 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Hollycroft, Driffield?

The median price paid in Hollycroft, Driffield across every sale on the register is £122,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Hollycroft, Driffield?

80 sales are on record for Hollycroft, Driffield, the most recent completing on 19 Dec 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Hollycroft, Driffield house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +35.0% between 2005 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -6.3%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Hollycroft, Driffield house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £185,000, set in 2021. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Hollycroft, Driffield?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 19 Dec 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
