How Sheldrake Road, Sleaford prices moved
The chart tracks the median Sheldrake Road, Sleaford house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2002 to 2021. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 6 | £131,500 | £239,554 |
| 2010s | 5 | £157,000 | £221,370 |
| 2020s | 1 | £225,000 | £229,891 |
The highest yearly median on record for Sheldrake Road, Sleaford is £230,000 in 2017; the lowest is £120,995 in 2002. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £120,995 to £225,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £233,383, so the real change over the whole record is +21.8% — about +1.04% 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: +48.0% in cash against +22.0% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Sheldrake Road, Sleaford 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 147 | 81.2% | £157,000 | £74,950 – £359,950 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Sheldrake Road, Sleaford
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 181 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 | 181 | 100.0% | £152,000 |
| New build | 70 | 38.7% | £124,998 |
| Existing home | 111 | 61.3% | £173,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -27.7%. 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across North Kesteven, 45.4% of 59,789 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.6% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in North Kesteven at £818 a month as of Jun 2026 — £576 for a one-bedroom home and £916 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £152,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.46% 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 NG34, 45 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 20 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 16 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.7 times quieter.
Against the 118,075 residents the 2021 census counted in North Kesteven, that is 0.38 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.

Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Sheldrake Road, Sleaford?

When were Sheldrake Road, Sleaford house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £230,000, set in 2017. 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 Sheldrake Road, Sleaford?
£1,584 per square metre, from the 44 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.
