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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elder Grove | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector WF2 9 | £148,750 | £130,000 +14% since | £103,275 +44% since | £109,000 +36% since | £94,000 +58% 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 WF2 9, over the last five years (770 sales):
- What sells: 45% terraced, 32% semi-detached, 12% detached, 7% flats, 5% other.
- 10% sold leasehold, and 5% were new builds.
- 117 sales in the last twelve months, against 254 in the same twelve months five years ago.
