How Third Row, Morpeth prices moved

The chart tracks the median Third Row, Morpeth house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2005. 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 Third Row, Morpeth is £76,950 in 2005; the lowest is £15,750 in 1997. Across the full 9-year record the cash median has moved from £15,750 to £76,950.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £33,395, so the real change over the whole record is +319.8% — about +19.64% 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: +388.6% in cash against +319.8% 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 Third Row, 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. Third Row, Morpeth is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Third Row, Morpeth

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 83 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.

A further 7 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 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 £57,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 14.46% 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 NE61, 76 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 39 violent, 1 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 9 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.2 times quieter.

Against the 320,567 residents the 2021 census counted in Northumberland, that is 0.24 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.

How Third Row, Morpeth compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Third Row, Morpeth sits below that national figure — -63.8%.

Within Morpeth the street ranks 920 of 961 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £150,000 (-62.0%).

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 £7,000 to £114,000. 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.

Third Row, 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. 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 Third Row, Morpeth?

The median price paid in Third Row, Morpeth across every sale on the register is £57,000. 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 Third Row, Morpeth?

83 sales are on record for Third Row, Morpeth, the most recent completing on 26 Sep 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Third Row, Morpeth house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +388.6% between 1997 and 2005. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +319.8%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Third Row, Morpeth house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £76,950, set in 2005. 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 Third Row, Morpeth?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 26 Sep 2024. 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.
