How this area has changed

Typical prices for semi-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
Whelpton Close	–	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales
Postcode sector LN9 6	£180,000	£166,750 +8% since	£130,000 +38% since	£127,875 +41% since	£120,000 +50% 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.

Sector LN9 6 East Lindsey Typical price each year, semi-detached houses. A gap is a year with too few sales.
