How Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough prices moved

The chart tracks the median Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2001 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.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough is £136,000 in 2006; the lowest is £94,473 in 2002. Across the full 22-year record the cash median has moved from £96,400 to £116,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £189,046, so the real change over the whole record is -28.6% — about -1.59% 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: -14.3% in cash against -44.3% 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.

Homes that sold twice

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 Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough 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. Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough 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 Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough

120 of the sales on record are leasehold and 1 freehold — 99.2% 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.

The median leasehold sale is £107,748 and the median freehold sale £28,500 — a gap of -73.5%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -17.8%. 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 6 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Middlesbrough at £702 a month as of Jun 2026 — £502 for a one-bedroom home and £757 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £107,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.84% 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 TS7, 109 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 41 violent, 3 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 38 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.5 times quieter.

Against the 143,926 residents the 2021 census counted in Middlesbrough, that is 0.76 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 Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough

How Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough sits below that national figure — -31.7%.

Within Middlesbrough the street ranks 982 of 2154 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £90,000 (+19.4%).

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 £28,500 to £183,000. 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.

Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough sits in Middlesbrough, in the North East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Middlesbrough at 4.5 times median local earnings of £34,000 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 Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough?

When were Memorial Drive, Middlesbrough house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £136,000, set in 2006. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
