How Markham Avenue, Leeds prices moved
The chart tracks the median Markham Avenue, Leeds house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2025. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 5 | £40,500 | £89,929 |
| 2000s | 8 | £60,000 | £109,302 |
| 2010s | 3 | £122,498 | £172,721 |
| 2020s | 4 | £240,000 | £245,217 |
The highest yearly median on record for Markham Avenue, Leeds is £339,500 in 2022; the lowest is £21,500 in 1996. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £23,750 to £247,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £52,736, so the real change over the whole record is +379.5% — about +5.36% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +115.2% in cash against +56.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Markham Avenue, Leeds is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 117 | 65.7% | £115,000 | £10,000 – £440,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Markham Avenue, Leeds
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 178 freehold — 0.0% 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 178 | 100.0% | £121,000 |
A further 3 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Leeds at £1,135 a month as of Jun 2026 — £775 for a one-bedroom home and £1,128 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £121,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.26% 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 LS8, 459 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 206 violent, 17 burglary, 20 vehicle-related and 39 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.7 times busier.
Against the 811,956 residents the 2021 census counted in Leeds, that is 0.57 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.

Within Leeds the street ranks 4465 of 7902 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £127,000 (-4.7%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,051 per square metre, across 11 of the 178 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

Markham Avenue, Leeds sits in Leeds, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Leeds at 6.5 times median local earnings of £37,821 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.
