In cash terms the typical LA20 home went from £78,000 in 1995 to £245,000 in 2026, roughly 3.1 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 44%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 55% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the LA20 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 2006 (+47.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−38.0%). 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) | −12.5% | −14.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −4.0% | −8.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | 0.0% | −3.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | −0.2% | −3.0% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 42% of the typed total. In 2004, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £280,000 against £155,000 for a flat, 1.8 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 18 LA20 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 24 sales a year before the financial crisis and 12 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.
Reading the LA20 market
This is a thin market: 18 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.
What homes rent for around LA20
LA20 falls under Westmorland and Furness, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £805 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £595 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,305, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Westmorland and Furness
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £245,000 median purchase price, a rent of £805 a month (£9,660 a year) works out at a 3.9% 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.

Moving up a bedroom in LA: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the LA area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £270,000 | £382,995 (+42%) | £550,000 (+44%) | £715,000 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £175,000 | £200,000 (+14%) | £250,000 (+25%) | £340,000 (+36%) | £492,500 (+45%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
