Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on DH9: steady sales, so price from the evidence

Roughly 39 homes a month change hands in DH9, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.

If you are thinking of selling, a spread from £45,000 to £214,700 makes £95,000 a poor guide to any one home, so price from sold homes that match yours in type and size; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

If you are looking to buy, DH9 sits well below the UK average for typical prices, so ask what is behind the lower prices before you assume a bargain.

Before an offer goes in on any DH9 home, look at what has been applied for nearby (106 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and the EPC, since it drives running costs, and leave the title to your conveyancer.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free DH9 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the County Durham (DH9) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £247,995 against £79,250 for terraced homes: about 3.1 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £45,000 and £214,700, so the median says little about any one home.
  • Nearly all of these sales (98%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
  • This is an active district: about 39 recorded sales a month.

That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

Questions, answered

The DH9 report: your questions

What is the average house price in DH9?
The typical (median) sold price in DH9 is £95,000, from 250 recorded sales between 5 February 2026 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £45,000 and £214,700. That is well below the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in DH9?
Typical sold prices by type in DH9: terraced homes £79,250 (160 sales), semi-detached homes £129,000 (53 sales), detached homes £247,995 (27 sales), flats £54,975 (2 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
Which schools are near DH9?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the DH9 district centre, the nearest being Oxhill Nursery School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the DH9 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is DH9 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 DH9 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 1 to decile 5, with a median of decile 2 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like DH9 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near DH9?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 106 applications within 500 m of the DH9 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in DH9 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 243 distinct addresses in the records we hold for DH9, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does DH9 cover my exact street?
DH9 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
