Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch

38 of the sales on record are leasehold and 19 freehold — 66.7% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

The median leasehold sale is £76,500 and the median freehold sale £237,000 — a gap of +209.8%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +86.5%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in North West Leicestershire at £907 a month as of Jun 2026 — £629 for a one-bedroom home and £984 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £108,600 here, that rent is a gross yield of 10.02% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of LE65, 110 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 47 violent, 2 burglary, 4 vehicle-related and 25 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.5 times quieter.

Against the 104,706 residents the 2021 census counted in North West Leicestershire, that is 1.05 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Section 08

The neighbourhood around Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch

The 2021 census counted 104,706 residents in North West Leicestershire across 44,974 households. 72.9% of those households own their home and 27.0% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

9 state and independent schools have a LE65 postcode: 7 primary, 2 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch sits below that national figure — -31.0%.

Within Ashby-de-la-zouch the street ranks 245 of 265 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £187,500 (-42.1%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,605 per square metre, across 12 of the 57 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £8,625 to £435,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch sits in North West Leicestershire, in England.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in North West Leicestershire at 8.1 times median local earnings of £33,551 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch?

The median price paid in Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch across every sale on the register is £108,600. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch?

57 sales are on record for Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch, the most recent completing on 9 May 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose -28.9% between 2002 and 2015. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -48.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £189,950, set in 2002. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Western Close, Ashby-de-la-zouch?

£1,605 per square metre, from the 12 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 9 May 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
