Thank you for your query.  

Residential property price and inflation rate statistics are published within the UK House Price Index (HPI). UK HPI publishes monthly statistics reflecting trends in property prices down to local authority level and includes breakdowns of price movements by property type (detached, semi-detached, terraced, and flats or maisonettes).  

The postcode provided resides within the Newport local authority. Property price levels and inflation rates for Newport, including breakdowns for Newport by property type, are available via the “data downloads” webpage on the GOV.UK website.

The latest UK HPI price statistics is for May 2025.

The information requested for the past five years is available for Newport within the “Average price” CSV file and “Average price by property type” CSV file on the latest “data downloads” page.

We do not publish property price forecasts, this request may be better suited to HM Land registry. They can be contacted at foi@landregistry.gov.uk.
