Type of home
When the homes were built
What the age of Norton-on-Derwent homes means for your front door
22.2% of the 5,490 properties around Norton-on-Derwent centre pre-date 1919 (close to the 21% average) and 12.4% were built between the wars. On those roughly 1,900 older homes, expect a timber door, a uPVC replacement, or a timber door in a uPVC frame.
20.4% of local properties date from 1945 to 1972 and 25.9% from 1973 to 1999, 46.3% together, close to the 45% average. Doors on those roughly 2,500 homes were very often replaced with white uPVC in the 1980s and 1990s, and white uPVC of that age tends to yellow, chalk or dull.
20.0% of properties around Norton-on-Derwent centre have been built since 2000 (above the 17% average). Many of those roughly 1,100 newer homes came with a composite, GRP or steel-faced door from the builder's range in the site colour; a respray means you are not stuck with that choice.
For comparison, 21.5% of properties in Malton (1 miles away) and 41.9% in Slingsby (6 miles) pre-date 1919, so Norton-on-Derwent has a share of period housing close to Malton and less than Slingsby. Since 2000 the figure is 20.0% here, 25.6% in Malton and 10.5% in Slingsby. For the uPVC-era decades from 1945 to 1999 the shares are 46.3% here, 43.8% in Malton and 43.0% in Slingsby.
Who lives in Norton-on-Derwent, and what that changes
Housing here is mixed: 21.3% detached, 38.0% semi-detached, 23.9% terraced and 16.6% flats across 5,138 households. With no single type above 38%, the door matters more to the price than the house does, so we quote once we have seen the door, the frame and any side panels.
21.7% of homes here, about 1,100, are social rented. If your landlord is the council or a housing association, the door belongs to them, so ask for written permission before booking a colour change.
