What a square metre costs in LE4 3

In cash terms the typical LE4 3 home went from £58,000 in 1995 to £305,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 142%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. 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 3 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 (+27.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−7.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What LE4 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.7% | −0.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.0% | +0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
Sales activity in LE4 3
How many homes change hands
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 33 sales completed in LE4 3. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 78 sales a year recently, against 84 a year before 2008. 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.
The rental side of LE4 3
For renting purposes LE4 3 sits in Charnwood. The ONS average private rent there is £955 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £674 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,468 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Charnwood
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £305,000 median purchase price, a rent of £955 a month (£11,460 a year) works out at a 3.8% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
Reading the LE4 3 market
This is a thin market: 33 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. Against the LE4 district median, LE4 3 sits 15% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

Moving up a bedroom in LE: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the LE area. 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%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
