In cash terms the typical LD7 home went from £46,200 in 1995 to £242,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 141%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2024; the current median sits about 21% below that. Someone who bought at the 2024 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the LD7 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 2002 (+68.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−15.7%). 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) | −1.6% | −3.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +5.6% | +0.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 52% of the typed total. In 2022, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £325,000 against £65,000 for a flat, 5.0 times the price.

Sales activity in LD7
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
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 45 LD7 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 77 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.
How LD7 trades
This is a thin market: 45 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. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.
The rental side of LD7
The local authority for LD7 is Powys, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £620 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £461 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £951, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Powys
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £242,500 median sold price, £620 a month is £7,440 a year, a gross yield of 3.1%: 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.

On the market in LD7 today
Everything above is what homes in LD7 sold for. This is what you could actually buy today: 15 homes currently on the market from an agent publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 3% below the LD7 median sold price.
Of everything listed here, 60% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
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.

The price of an extra bedroom in LD
Real sold prices by size across the LD 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £242,135 | £327,250 (+35%) | £450,000 (+38%) | — |
| Semi-detached | — | £215,000 | £235,000 (+9%) | £300,000 (+28%) | — |
| Terraced | £155,500 | £170,000 (+9%) | £200,000 (+18%) | £252,500 (+26%) | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
