In cash terms the typical LE14 4 home went from £76,000 in 1995 to £387,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 135%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 18% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the LE14 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 2002 (+46.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−15.5%). 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) | −0.1% | −2.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.3% | +0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
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.
LE14 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 112 sales a year before the financial crisis and 78 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.
What tenants pay around LE14 4
The local authority for LE14 4 is Melton, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £791 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £546 a month here against £1,345 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Melton
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£791 a month is £9,492 a year, which against the £387,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 2.4%. 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.
What kind of market LE14 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. Within LE14, this sector trades 20% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

What another bedroom costs in LE
What homes of each size actually sold for across the LE area, from the Land Registry record. 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 | — | £285,000 | £380,000 (+33%) | £560,000 (+47%) | £795,000 (+42%) |
| Semi-detached | £210,000 | £242,000 (+15%) | £282,000 (+17%) | £360,000 (+28%) | £500,000 (+39%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
