LE16 7EF sits above the national average, with prices 22% higher than the England and Wales benchmark. The median sits below the average, suggesting that a subset of higher-value sales pulls the mean upward — a pattern common in areas with mixed housing stock ranging from starter homes to luxury properties. Based on 68 registered HM Land Registry transactions across 6 years of data, these figures reflect actual completed sales rather than asking prices. Five-year growth compares average prices over 12-month windows; the most recent months may be slightly incomplete due to registration lag (sales can take 2–6 months to appear in the Land Registry). Note that this analysis draws on 68 transactions, which gives a directional picture but may not capture the full price range of this area.
A postcode may be missing when it has no recorded sales or too few registered HM Land Registry transactions to publish a useful page. Very recent completions can also be absent until registration and the next monthly data refresh.
