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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brookfields | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector WN5 8 | £235,000 | £164,250 +43% since | £135,250 +74% since | £125,000 +88% since | £136,750 +72% 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 WN5 8, over the last five years (964 sales):
- What sells: 44% semi-detached, 29% terraced, 16% detached, 7% other, 4% flats.
- 51% sold leasehold, and 6% were new builds.
- 168 sales in the last twelve months, against 248 in the same twelve months five years ago.
