| 1995 | £32,000 | £69,563 | 87 |
In cash terms the typical WF1 5 home went from £32,000 in 1995 to £177,800 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 156%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 35% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the WF1 5 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 2021 (+115.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−13.0%). 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 years (since 2025) | −8.8% | −10.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −3.7% | −8.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.9% | +2.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 32 WF1 5 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 180 sales a year before the financial crisis and 118 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.
How WF1 5 trades
This is a thin market: 32 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. Within WF1, this sector trades 11% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
The rental side of WF1 5
WF1 5 falls under Wakefield, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £794 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £567 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,200, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Wakefield
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £177,800 median purchase price, a rent of £794 a month (£9,528 a year) works out at a 5.4% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

WF1's current homes for sale
This is what you could actually buy today: 99 homes currently on the market from 10 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole WF1 district, not just WF1 5: live asking prices are collected per district.

Moving up a bedroom in WF: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the WF 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 | — | £242,000 | £332,000 (+37%) | £473,725 (+43%) | £650,000 (+37%) |
| Semi-detached | £170,000 | £184,000 (+8%) | £228,000 (+24%) | £282,000 (+24%) | £362,500 (+29%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit 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.
