In cash terms the typical LE14 home went from £67,000 in 1995 to £324,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 122%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 24% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the LE14 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 2001 (+37.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2000 (−20.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
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 £470,000 against £100,000 for a flat, 4.7 times the price.

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.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
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 221 LE14 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 333 sales a year before the financial crisis and 266 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 kind of market LE14 is
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. Among the 21 measurable districts of its area, LE14 ranks 2 by median price: firmly in the dearer tier.
Rents around LE14
For renting purposes LE14 sits in Melton. The ONS average private rent there is £791 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £546 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,345 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Melton
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £324,000 median sold price, £791 a month is £9,492 a year, a gross yield of 2.9%: 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: LE prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the LE area, from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £285,000 | £380,000 (+33%) | £560,000 (+47%) | £795,000 (+42%) |

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.
