How this area has changed
Typical prices for detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Melbourne Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector LE8 0 | £500,000 | £422,500 +18% since | £355,000 +41% since | £290,000 +72% since | £278,000 +80% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in LE8 0, over the last five years (671 sales):
- What sells: 43% detached, 24% semi-detached, 22% terraced, 7% other, 5% flats.
- 7% sold leasehold, and 9% were new builds.
- 107 sales in the last twelve months, against 278 in the same twelve months five years ago.
