How St Johns Estate, Morpeth prices moved
The chart tracks the median St Johns Estate, Morpeth house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2017. 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 | 2 | £35,000 | £77,717 |
| 2010s | 2 | £92,000 | £129,720 |
The highest yearly median on record for St Johns Estate, Morpeth is £118,500 in 2017; the lowest is £35,000 in 1998. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £35,000 to £118,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £72,574, so the real change over the whole record is +122.2% — about +4.29% 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: +182.1% in cash against +88.5% 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.

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 St Johns Estate, Morpeth 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. St Johns Estate, Morpeth 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 | 51 | 56.7% | £92,000 | £600 – £201,000 |
| Semi-detached | 37 | 41.1% | £105,000 | £27,500 – £153,500 |
| Detached | 2 | 2.2% | £49,000 | £49,000 – £169,950 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in St Johns Estate, Morpeth
2 of the sales on record are leasehold and 88 freehold — 2.2% 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 £81,000 and the median freehold sale £100,000 — a gap of +23.5%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 2 | 2.2% | £81,000 |
| Freehold | 88 | 97.8% | £100,000 |
| New build | 1 | 1.1% | £675 |
| Existing home | 89 | 98.9% | £100,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -99.3%. 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.

Living in St Johns Estate, Morpeth
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Northumberland, 43.9% of 169,476 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 7.0% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Northumberland at £687 a month as of Jun 2026 — £489 for a one-bedroom home and £757 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £100,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.24% 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 NE65, 1 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 0 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 0 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 100.0 times quieter.
Against the 320,567 residents the 2021 census counted in Northumberland, that is 0.00 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.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around St Johns Estate, Morpeth
The 2021 census counted 320,567 residents in Northumberland across 146,922 households. 65.7% of those households own their home and 34.2% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
12 state and independent schools have a NE65 postcode: 10 primary, 1 middle deemed secondary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Morpeth the street ranks 739 of 961 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £150,000 (-33.3%).
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.

St Johns Estate, Morpeth sits in Northumberland, in the North East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Northumberland at 5.7 times median local earnings of £35,323 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in St Johns Estate, Morpeth?

How many homes have sold in St Johns Estate, Morpeth?

When were St Johns Estate, Morpeth house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £118,500, set in 2017. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 1 May 2026. 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.
