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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Braidhaven | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector WN6 8 | £220,000 | £160,000 +38% since | £137,000 +61% since | £123,250 +78% since | £129,000 +71% 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 WN6 8, over the last five years (771 sales):
- What sells: 51% semi-detached, 21% detached, 20% terraced, 5% other, 3% flats.
- 44% sold leasehold.
- 122 sales in the last twelve months, against 200 in the same twelve months five years ago.
