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 Crest | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector LS26 8 | £240,000 | £202,000 +19% since | £160,000 +50% since | £131,475 +83% since | £145,000 +66% 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 LS26 8, over the last five years (1,004 sales):
- What sells: 46% semi-detached, 27% detached, 21% terraced, 4% flats, 2% other.
- 4% sold leasehold, and 6% were new builds.
- 156 sales in the last twelve months, against 276 in the same twelve months five years ago.
