Section 01
How Mersey Street, Hull prices moved
The chart tracks the median Mersey Street, Hull house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2022. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 5 | £22,475 | £49,905 |
| 2000s | 9 | £43,975 | £80,109 |
| 2010s | 4 | £53,400 | £75,294 |
| 2020s | 1 | £83,000 | £84,804 |
The highest yearly median on record for Mersey Street, Hull is £83,000 in 2022; the lowest is £21,525 in 1997. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £27,500 to £83,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £61,063, so the real change over the whole record is +57.5% — about +1.70% 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: +31.7% in cash against +2.2% 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 most recent sales
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 Mersey Street, Hull values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Mersey Street, Hull is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 213 | 97.7% | £43,000 | £12,000 – £168,000 |
| Semi-detached | 5 | 2.3% | £51,500 | £30,000 – £83,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Mersey Street, Hull
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 218 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 | 218 | 100.0% | £43,975 |
A further 26 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 East Riding of Yorkshire, 40.2% of 170,039 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 6.5% 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 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 £43,975 here, that rent is a gross yield of 19.76% 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 HU8, 331 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 149 violent, 12 burglary, 9 vehicle-related and 17 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.0 times busier.
Against the 342,215 residents the 2021 census counted in East Riding of Yorkshire, that is 0.97 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 neighbourhood around Mersey Street, Hull

How Mersey Street, Hull compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Mersey Street, Hull sits below that national figure — -72.1%.
Within Hull the street ranks 2746 of 3128 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £85,000 (-48.3%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £575 per square metre, across 116 of the 218 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £12,000 to £168,000. 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.
Mersey Street, Hull 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 Mersey Street, Hull?
The median price paid in Mersey Street, Hull across every sale on the register is £43,975. 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 Mersey Street, Hull?
218 sales are on record for Mersey Street, Hull, the most recent completing on 14 Mar 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +31.7% between 2012 and 2022. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +2.2%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Mersey Street, Hull house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £83,000, set in 2022. 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 Mersey Street, Hull?
£575 per square metre, from the 116 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 14 Mar 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.
