How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Waterloo Crescent | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector LE8 5 | – | £203,725 | £162,475 | Not enough sales | £124,000 |

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 5, over the last five years (504 sales):
- What sells: 46% semi-detached, 36% detached, 14% terraced, 2% flats, 2% other.
- 3% sold leasehold.
- 99 sales in the last twelve months, against 173 in the same twelve months five years ago.
