Market Overview: CO8
The median sale price in CO8 is £375k, drawn from 18 residential transactions in the last twelve months. Individual sales ranged from £268k to £960k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
Detached houses were the most common transaction type, representing 50% of sales, while semi-detached houses accounted for 28% and terraced houses accounted for 22%.
The twelve-month trend is softer than it was: the median in the second half of the window was 23.5% below the first-half median. Monthly transaction counts were uneven, which means any single month's median can move sharply on a handful of sales — the twelve-month view is the more reliable benchmark.
The CO8 5AB dataset is a reasonable baseline, but decisions at the individual-property level should still lean on matched comparables rather than the area median alone. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 3.8%, based on ONS regional rents.
