What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Grove Square, Leyburn is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Grove Square, Leyburn

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 36 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.

A further 2 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 North Yorkshire at £838 a month as of Jun 2026 — £586 for a one-bedroom home and £929 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £201,825 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.98% 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.

No street-level crime was published for DL8 in Jun 2026. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

How Grove Square, Leyburn compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Grove Square, Leyburn sits above that national figure — +28.1%.

Within Leyburn the street ranks 64 of 137 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £200,000 (+0.9%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,324 per square metre, across 4 of the 36 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 £46,000 to £915,000. 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.

Grove Square, Leyburn sits in North Yorkshire, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in North Yorkshire at 7.9 times median local earnings of £34,785 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.

36 sales are on record for Grove Square, Leyburn, the most recent completing on 19 Aug 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

What is the price per square metre in Grove Square, Leyburn?

£1,324 per square metre, from the 4 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 19 Aug 2024. 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.
