How Green Lane, York prices moved

The chart tracks the median Green Lane, York 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.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Green Lane, York is £437,500 in 2025; the lowest is £58,950 in 1996. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £62,000 to £437,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £137,669, so the real change over the whole record is +224.7% — about +4.00% 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: +72.4% in cash against +24.9% 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.

Homes that sold twice

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 Green Lane, York values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

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

Ownership and new build in Green Lane, York

8 of the sales on record are leasehold and 213 freehold — 3.6% 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 £91,000 and the median freehold sale £200,000 — a gap of +119.8%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold83.6%£91,000

New build177.7%£325,000
Existing home20492.3%£193,500
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +68.0%. 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 10 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in North Yorkshire at £838 a month as of Jun 2026 — £586 for a one-bedroom home and £929 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £199,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.05% 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 YO23, 28 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 9 violent, 1 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 6 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 6.0 times quieter.

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.

How Green Lane, York compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Green Lane, York sits above that national figure — +26.3%.

Within York the street ranks 1534 of 3670 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £173,000 (+15.0%).

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 £24,000 to £865,000. 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.

Green Lane, York 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.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Green Lane, York?

The median price paid in Green Lane, York across every sale on the register is £199,000. 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 Green Lane, York?

221 sales are on record for Green Lane, York, the most recent completing on 18 Dec 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Green Lane, York house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +72.4% between 2015 and 2025. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +24.9%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Green Lane, York house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £437,500, set in 2025. 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 Green Lane, York?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 18 Dec 2025. 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.
