The chart tracks the median Queensway, Scunthorpe house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 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.

The highest yearly median on record for Queensway, Scunthorpe is £135,000 in 2025; the lowest is £25,250 in 1998. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £28,975 to £135,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £64,338, so the real change over the whole record is +114.4% — about +2.57% 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: +58.8% in cash against +15.1% 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.

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 Queensway, Scunthorpe values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Queensway, Scunthorpe is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

23 of the sales on record are leasehold and 182 freehold — 11.2% 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 £63,000 and the median freehold sale £78,750 — a gap of +25.0%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across North Lincolnshire, 40.4% of 77,628 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in North Lincolnshire at £652 a month as of Jun 2026 — £470 for a one-bedroom home and £749 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £74,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 10.44% 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.

The 2021 census counted 169,680 residents in North Lincolnshire across 73,172 households. 67.8% of those households own their home and 32.1% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

14 state and independent schools have a DN16 postcode: 11 primary, 3 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Scunthorpe the street ranks 877 of 1152 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £95,000 (-21.1%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £845 per square metre, across 45 of the 205 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £15,000 to £294,000. 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.

Queensway, Scunthorpe sits in North Lincolnshire, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in North Lincolnshire at 5.2 times median local earnings of £34,129 a year, measured to Sep 2025.
