How this area has changed
Typical prices for 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forest Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector WF1 4 | £341,525 | £338,972 +1% since | £187,500 +82% since | Not enough sales | £218,000 +57% 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 WF1 4, over the last five years (749 sales):
- What sells: 33% semi-detached, 25% detached, 22% terraced, 18% flats, 2% other.
- 22% sold leasehold, and 17% were new builds.
- 116 sales in the last twelve months, against 204 in the same twelve months five years ago.
