How this area has changed
Typical prices for semi-detached 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector LS25 7 | £239,500 | £189,950 +26% since | £140,000 +71% since | £119,000 +101% since | £139,000 +72% 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 LS25 7, over the last five years (807 sales):
- What sells: 52% semi-detached, 22% terraced, 21% detached, 3% flats, 2% other.
- 4% sold leasehold, and 2% were new builds.
- 159 sales in the last twelve months, against 264 in the same twelve months five years ago.
