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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Markham Crescent | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector LU5 4 | £355,000 | £324,000 +10% since | £275,000 +29% since | £180,000 +97% since | £177,000 +101% since |
| South Bedfordshire | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £180,000 |
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 LU5 4, over the last five years (1,059 sales):
- What sells: 42% semi-detached, 29% flats, 21% terraced, 5% detached, 3% other.
- 30% sold leasehold, and 3% were new builds.
- 172 sales in the last twelve months, against 317 in the same twelve months five years ago.
