How Main Street, Shildon prices moved
The chart tracks the median Main Street, Shildon house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2007. 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 | 1 | £29,000 | £64,394 |
| 2000s | 3 | £55,000 | £100,194 |
The highest yearly median on record for Main Street, Shildon is £85,000 in 2007; the lowest is £27,500 in 2000. Across the full 11-year record the cash median has moved from £29,000 to £85,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £61,489, so the real change over the whole record is +140.3% — about +9.16% 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: +193.1% in cash against +140.3% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Main Street, Shildon 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 | 64 | 87.7% | £45,500 | £7,000 – £135,000 |
| Semi-detached | 9 | 12.3% | £52,000 | £29,000 – £104,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Main Street, Shildon
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 73 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 | 73 | 100.0% | £50,000 |
A further 37 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.
Section 09
How Main Street, Shildon compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Main Street, Shildon sits below that national figure — -68.3%.
Within Shildon the street ranks 99 of 159 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £59,500 (-16.0%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £553 per square metre, across 30 of the 73 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 £7,000 to £135,000. 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Main Street, Shildon?
The median price paid in Main Street, Shildon across every sale on the register is £50,000. 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 Main Street, Shildon?
73 sales are on record for Main Street, Shildon, the most recent completing on 7 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +193.1% between 1997 and 2007. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +140.3%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Main Street, Shildon house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £85,000, set in 2007. 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 Main Street, Shildon?
£553 per square metre, from the 30 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 7 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.
