How Forest Lane, Yarm prices moved

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Forest Lane, Yarm is £335,000 in 2026; the lowest is £95,250 in 1997. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £95,250 to £335,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £201,959, so the real change over the whole record is +65.9% — about +1.76% 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: +12.6% in cash against -24.6% 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. Forest Lane, Yarm is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Forest Lane, Yarm

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 84 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold00.0%
Freehold84100.0%£265,000
New build11.2%£315,000
Existing home8398.8%£260,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +21.2%. 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 3 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 Forest Lane, Yarm compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Forest Lane, Yarm sits above that national figure — +68.3%.

Within Yarm the street ranks 95 of 272 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £185,000 (+43.2%).

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.

The full range on record runs from £55,000 to £1,050,000. 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.

When were Forest Lane, Yarm house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £335,000, set in 2026. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
