Halewood market report L26 7, Liverpool
The L26 7 (Halewood) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. The raw material for this page is 2,658 HM Land Registry entries for L26 7 (Liverpool), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS. Valuations, estimates and asking prices appear nowhere in it.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: the 2026 median for L26 7 (Liverpool) is £220,000, from 17 registered sales, up 19% on five years earlier; the mean is £249,200, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,780 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 2,658 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
L26 7 is one sector of L26 (Liverpool): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

In cash terms the typical L26 7 home went from £56,000 in 1995 to £220,000 in 2026, roughly 3.9 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 81%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 11% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the L26 7 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 2004 (+33.0% on the year before); the weakest, 1997 (−9.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −8.3% | −10.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.5% | −1.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.1% | +0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
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.
How many homes change hands in L26 7
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 17 L26 7 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 103 sales a year before the financial crisis and 49 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
Rents around L26 7
For renting purposes L26 7 sits in Knowsley. The ONS average private rent there is £814 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £571 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,260, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Knowsley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£814 a month is £9,768 a year, which against the £220,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.4%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
How L26 7 trades
Only 17 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes L26 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

The price of an extra bedroom in L
Real sold prices by size across the L area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
