How Gordon Street, Scarborough prices moved
The chart tracks the median Gordon Street, Scarborough house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2025. 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 | 3 | £43,500 | £96,591 |
| 2000s | 7 | £84,000 | £153,023 |
| 2010s | 4 | £123,000 | £173,430 |
| 2020s | 5 | £156,475 | £159,877 |
The highest yearly median on record for Gordon Street, Scarborough is £173,500 in 2025; the lowest is £41,875 in 1998. Across the full 29-year record the cash median has moved from £43,500 to £173,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £92,233, so the real change over the whole record is +92.2% — about +2.36% 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: +41.1% in cash against -3.5% 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.

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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Gordon Street, Scarborough 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 | 191 | 97.9% | £117,500 | £30,000 – £194,350 |
| Semi-detached | 4 | 2.1% | £49,000 | £45,000 – £185,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Gordon Street, Scarborough
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 195 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 | 195 | 100.0% | £117,500 |
| New build | 1 | 0.5% | £53,000 |
| Existing home | 194 | 99.5% | £118,250 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -55.2%. 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 4 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 North Yorkshire, 38.1% of 324,488 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 8.5% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of YO12, 361 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 133 violent, 4 burglary, 3 vehicle-related and 101 anti-social behaviour.

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.

Gordon Street, Scarborough sits in North Yorkshire, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in North Yorkshire at 7.9 times median local earnings of £34,785 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.
