LS16 6 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside LS16 (Leeds). 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.

What a square metre costs in LS16 6

In cash terms the typical LS16 6 home went from £52,500 in 1995 to £245,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 115%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 23% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the LS16 6 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 2020 (+23.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2021 (−13.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What LS16 6 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −10.3% | −12.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.0% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
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.
How many homes change hands in LS16 6
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 register shows 55 LS16 6 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 165 sales a year recently, against 197 a year before 2008. 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 LS16 6 market
Only 55 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes LS16 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Against the LS16 district median, LS16 6 sits 25% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around LS16 6
LS16 6 falls under Leeds, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,134 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £774 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,677, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Leeds
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £245,000 median sold price, £1,134 a month is £13,608 a year, a gross yield of 5.6%: 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 LS
What homes of each size actually sold for across the LS 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £298,000 | £425,000 (+43%) | £675,000 (+59%) | £900,000 (+33%) |
| Semi-detached | £205,000 | £230,000 (+12%) | £295,000 (+28%) | £431,000 (+46%) | £602,500 (+40%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
