In cash terms the typical LL22 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £209,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 114%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the LL22 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 2004 (+35.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−10.4%). 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) | −0.5% | −2.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
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 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £270,000 against £120,000 for a flat, 2.3 times the price.

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.
The last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
Over the last twelve months of data, 260 sales completed in LL22. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 431 sales a year before the financial crisis and 271 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.
The rental side of LL22
The local authority for LL22 is Conwy, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £781 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £578 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,215, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Conwy
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£781 a month is £9,372 a year, which against the £209,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.5%. 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.

Moving up a bedroom in LL: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the LL area, straight 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.
