LE4 0 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside LE4 (Leicester). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical LE4 0 home went from £38,800 in 1995 to £265,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 214%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 12% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the LE4 0 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 (+45.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−6.6%). 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) | +3.9% | +1.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.7% | −1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.1% | +2.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.1% | +1.3% |
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.
Sales activity in LE4 0
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.
LE4 0 recorded 49 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 225 sales a year before the financial crisis and 114 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
Reading the LE4 0 market
This is a thin market: 49 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 tenants pay around LE4 0
For renting purposes LE4 0 sits in Leicester. The ONS average private rent there is £1,024 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £717 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,459 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Leicester
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £265,000 median sold price, £1,024 a month is £12,288 a year, a gross yield of 4.6%: 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.

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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
