In cash terms the typical LE4 9 home went from £38,000 in 1995 to £260,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 215%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 7% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the LE4 9 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 (+31.8% on the year before); the weakest, 1997 (−18.7%). 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) | +3.0% | +0.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.8% | −1.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.1% | +2.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.3% | +1.5% |
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.
Sales activity in LE4 9
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 31 sales completed in LE4 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 196 sales a year before the financial crisis and 73 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
How LE4 9 trades
This is a thin market: 31 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.
Rents around LE4 9
For renting purposes LE4 9 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.
£1,024 a month is £12,288 a year, which against the £260,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.7%. 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 you could buy in LE4 now
This is what you could actually buy today: 252 homes currently on the market from 12 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole LE4 district, not just LE4 9: live asking prices are collected per district.
22% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Moving up a bedroom in LE: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the LE area, straight 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.

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

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
