Section 02
The most recent sales

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 Shearburn Close, Ossett 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. Shearburn Close, Ossett 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 30 | 55.6% | £209,995 | £167,250 – £297,500 |
| Terraced | 21 | 38.9% | £156,995 | £90,000 – £220,000 |
| Semi-detached | 3 | 5.6% | £137,995 | £137,995 – £151,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Shearburn Close, Ossett
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 54 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 | 54 | 100.0% | £190,500 |
| New build | 26 | 48.1% | £190,500 |
| Existing home | 28 | 51.9% | £193,475 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -1.5%. 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.
A further 4 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.

Living in Shearburn Close, Ossett
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Kirklees, 38.7% of 198,495 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.4% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 861 | 0.4% |
| B | 15,279 | 7.7% |
| C | 60,657 | 30.6% |
| D | 82,930 | 41.8% |
| E | 30,047 | 15.1% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Kirklees at £780 a month as of Jun 2026 — £582 for a one-bedroom home and £864 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £190,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.91% 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 WF5, 122 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 51 violent, 1 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 22 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.4 times quieter.
Against the 433,216 residents the 2021 census counted in Kirklees, that is 0.28 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 Shearburn Close, Ossett
The 2021 census counted 433,216 residents in Kirklees across 177,989 households. 65.9% of those households own their home and 33.8% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
10 state and independent schools have a WF5 postcode: 9 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Ossett the street ranks 47 of 322 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £120,000 (+58.7%).

Shearburn Close, Ossett sits in Kirklees, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Kirklees at 6.3 times median local earnings of £33,613 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.

How many homes have sold in Shearburn Close, Ossett?

When were Shearburn Close, Ossett house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £187,498, set in 2005. 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 Shearburn Close, Ossett?

The latest sale shown here completed on 29 Apr 2026. 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.
