In cash terms the typical HD9 4 home went from £57,000 in 1995 to £273,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 121%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 23% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the HD9 4 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2021 (+44.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−15.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −11.1% | −13.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.5% | −5.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
HD9 4 recorded 26 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 82 sales a year before the financial crisis and 49 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What homes rent for around HD9 4
For renting purposes HD9 4 sits in Kirklees. The ONS average private rent there is £775 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £578 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,221 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Kirklees
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £273,500 median purchase price, a rent of £775 a month (£9,300 a year) works out at a 3.4% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
What kind of market HD9 4 is
This is a thin market: 26 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.

The price of an extra bedroom in HD
Real sold prices by size across the HD area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
