Shieldfield property market: common questions
Where is Shieldfield?
Shieldfield is about 2 miles south-east of central Newcastle upon Tyne, in Tyne & Wear. Figures for Shieldfield cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
What is the average house price in Shieldfield?
The median asking price across the 143 homes for sale in Shieldfield is £170,000 (as of 5 October 2026). We quote the median (the middle listing) rather than a mean, because a handful of very expensive homes would pull a mean upwards. Half of listings ask between £130,000 and £260,000. That is 8% below Newcastle upon Tyne. Homes that actually sold in Shieldfield went for a median £184,863 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (143 in Shieldfield), refreshed daily, as of 5 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Shieldfield cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
- Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Shieldfield since May 2026.
- Newcastle upon Tyne comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Newcastle upon Tyne, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
- Sold figures: HM Land Registry price paid data. Sold prices and sales counts cover the 12 months to January 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to July 2026, with floor areas from EPC certificates (the two run on different pipelines, and the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered). England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
