In cash terms the typical LL29 8 home went from £42,500 in 1995 to £210,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 127%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 31% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the LL29 8 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 2005 (+62.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−18.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −1.6% | −3.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −2.8% | −7.3% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +5.2% | +0.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
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.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
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, 50 sales completed in LL29 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 176 sales a year before the financial crisis and 102 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.
The shape of the LL29 8 market
Only 50 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes LL29 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
Rents around LL29 8
For renting purposes LL29 8 sits in Conwy. The ONS average private rent there is £781 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £578 a month here against £1,215 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Conwy
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £210,000 median sold price, £781 a month is £9,372 a year, a gross yield of 4.5%: 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: LL prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the LL area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £185,000 | £230,000 (+24%) | £280,000 (+22%) | £360,000 (+29%) | £466,750 (+30%) |

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.
