The most recent sales

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 Nelson Street, Ryton 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. Nelson Street, Ryton 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 | 47 | 100.0% | £72,000 | £18,000 – £138,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Nelson Street, Ryton
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 47 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 | 47 | 100.0% | £72,000 |
A further 2 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.

Living in Nelson Street, Ryton
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Gateshead, 45.8% of 97,763 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 2.2% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 194 | 0.2% |
| B | 7,489 | 7.7% |
| C | 37,122 | 38.0% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Gateshead at £793 a month as of Jun 2026 — £583 for a one-bedroom home and £832 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £72,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 13.22% 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 NE40, 97 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 27 violent, 1 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 26 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.7 times quieter.
Against the 196,151 residents the 2021 census counted in Gateshead, that is 0.49 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 Nelson Street, Ryton
The 2021 census counted 196,151 residents in Gateshead across 88,999 households. 58.4% of those households own their home and 41.5% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
7 state and independent schools have a NE40 postcode: 6 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Ryton the street ranks 277 of 306 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £110,500 (-34.8%).
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.

Nelson Street, Ryton sits in Gateshead, in the North East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Gateshead at 4.9 times median local earnings of £33,670 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

How many homes have sold in Nelson Street, Ryton?
47 sales are on record for Nelson Street, Ryton, the most recent completing on 29 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
What is the price per square metre in Nelson Street, Ryton?
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.

The latest sale shown here completed on 29 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.
