Revealed: The 10 most popular north Derbyshire areas where house prices will rise in 2022

A leading local estate agent says he’s excited about the prospects for the housing market in north Derbyshire in 2022 – and revealed where house prices are most likely to rise this year.

Carl Bridge, managing director of Bricks+Mortar in Wirksworth said: "The pandemic has prompted lots of people to rethink their priorities – the desire for outdoor space, proximity to good walks, the ability to work from home and being part of a friendly community are all big reasons why there is such a strong demand for homes in this region.

2021 was a record year for us and 2022 is already much busier still, with valuation requests and new home listings keeping us very busy, which is a sure sign of a busy housing market.

Rightmove have predicted that house prices will increase by an average of 5% across the UK in 2022. We agree with Rightmove and other industry commentators that areas with beautiful countryside, pretty villages and thriving, friendly small towns will see house price growth above that 5% average – and we have lots of those here!”
