The chart tracks the median Howards Way, Ebbw Vale house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2000. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

The highest yearly median on record for Howards Way, Ebbw Vale is £82,250 in 2000; the lowest is £73,450 in 1999. Across the full 3-year record the cash median has moved from £77,950 to £82,250.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £161,632, so the real change over the whole record is +1.8% — about +0.88% 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.

Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Howards Way, Ebbw Vale values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

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

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 74 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.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -50.0%. 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.

A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Blaenau Gwent, 35.0% of 31,334 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Blaenau Gwent at £677 a month as of Jun 2026 — £499 for a one-bedroom home and £684 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £84,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.56% 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 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.

The 2021 census counted 66,904 residents in Blaenau Gwent across 30,340 households. 60.2% of those households own their home and 39.7% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Howards Way, Ebbw Vale sits below that national figure — -46.1%.

Within Ebbw Vale the street ranks 169 of 392 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £77,000 (+10.3%).

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.

The full range on record runs from £23,000 to £390,000. 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.

Howards Way, Ebbw Vale sits in Blaenau Gwent, in Wales.
