How Blue Lake Close, Ebbw Vale prices moved
The chart tracks the median Blue Lake Close, Ebbw Vale house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2020 to 2025. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020s | 3 | £207,995 | £212,517 |
The highest yearly median on record for Blue Lake Close, Ebbw Vale is £230,000 in 2025; the lowest is £195,995 in 2020. Across the full 6-year record the cash median has moved from £195,995 to £230,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £253,768, so the real change over the whole record is -7.4% — about -1.52% 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: +17.3% in cash against -7.4% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Blue Lake Close, Ebbw Vale is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Blue Lake Close, Ebbw Vale
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 84 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 84 | 100.0% | £199,245 |
| New build | 71 | 84.5% | £198,995 |
| Existing home | 13 | 15.5% | £230,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -13.5%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of NP23, 167 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 64 violent, 3 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 35 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.
Against the 66,904 residents the 2021 census counted in Blaenau Gwent, that is 2.50 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.
