In cash terms the typical LA4 6 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £220,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 102%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 19% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the LA4 6 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 2003 (+27.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−8.8%). 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) | −2.2% | −4.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.0% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
The register shows 52 LA4 6 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 254 sales a year before the financial crisis and 153 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.
The shape of the LA4 6 market
This is a thin market: 52 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. Within LA4, this sector trades 21% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of LA4 6
LA4 6 falls under Lancaster, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £807 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £590 a month here against £1,203 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Lancaster
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £220,000 median sold price, £807 a month is £9,684 a year, a gross yield of 4.4%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

LA4's current homes for sale
The live side of the market holds 65 homes at the moment, listed by 2 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole LA4 district, not just LA4 6: live asking prices are collected per district.
28% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.

- Poulton Road, Morecambe, Lancashire, LA4
- Beach Street, Morecambe, Lancashire, LA4
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Bedroom by bedroom: LA prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the LA area, 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.
| 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.
