How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Square | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector WF10 3 | – | £145,000 | £124,995 | Not enough sales | £79,975 |
| Wakefield | £155,000 | £130,000 +19% since | £105,000 +48% since | £94,995 +63% since | £94,725 +64% 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 WF10 3, over the last five years (675 sales):
- What sells: 60% semi-detached, 25% detached, 13% terraced, 2% flats, 1% other.
- 2% sold leasehold, and 1% were new builds.
- 120 sales in the last twelve months, against 181 in the same twelve months five years ago.
