Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on YO21: steady sales, so price from the evidence

At around 18 sales a month, YO21 ticks along steadily, which is enough to price from, though not enough history for us to call a clear twelve-month direction.

If you are thinking of selling, with detached homes at £367,500 and flats at £155,000, the £130,500 to £461,500 spread is really several markets, so price from sold homes that match yours in type and size; roughly 18 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.

Sell house

If you are looking to buy, on price, YO21 is below the UK average, so find out why prices run lower here before deciding it is good value.

Before an offer goes in on any YO21 home, look at whether the home is at risk of flooding, council tax (Band D is £2,544 a year) and what has been built or proposed nearby, and leave the title to your conveyancer.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free YO21 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the North Yorkshire (YO21) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £367,500 against £155,000 for flats: about 2.4 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £130,500 and £461,500, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 18 recorded sales a month.

Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so YO21 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in YO21: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

What it costs to run a home in YO21, band by band

North Yorkshire's council tax for 2026-27 set against the YO21 median sold price of £245,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the YO21 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The YO21 report: your questions

What is the average house price in YO21?
The typical (median) sold price in YO21 is £245,000, from 250 recorded sales between 4 July 2025 and 25 August 2026. Most sales fell between £130,500 and £461,500. That is 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 YO21?
Typical sold prices by type in YO21: terraced homes £213,000 (75 sales), semi-detached homes £254,500 (58 sales), detached homes £367,500 (51 sales), flats £155,000 (45 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in YO21?
YO21 is billed by North Yorkshire, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,544 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
How up to date are the YO21 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 YO21 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 YO21 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 6, 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 YO21 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near YO21?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 2 applications within 500 m of the YO21 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 YO21 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 233 distinct addresses in the records we hold for YO21, 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 YO21 cover my exact street?
YO21 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.
