In cash terms the typical LS27 8 home went from £42,000 in 1995 to £185,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 103%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 23% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the LS27 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 2003 (+36.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−11.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What LS27 8 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −11.9% | −14.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.5% | −5.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.0% | +0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 79 sales completed in LS27 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 335 sales a year before the financial crisis and 149 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.
Rents around LS27 8
The local authority for LS27 8 is Leeds, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,134 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £774 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,677 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Leeds
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £185,000 median sold price, £1,134 a month is £13,608 a year, a gross yield of 7.4%: 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.
Reading the LS27 8 market
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. Within LS27, this sector trades 11% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

The price of an extra bedroom in LS
What homes of each size actually sold for across the LS area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
| 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%) |
| Terraced | £165,000 | £185,000 (+12%) | £235,000 (+27%) | £328,000 (+40%) | £440,000 (+34%) |
| Flat | £135,000 | £187,500 (+39%) | £300,000 (+60%) | £475,000 (+58%) | — |
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.

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.
