Market Overview: LS5
Land Registry records 47 residential transactions in LS5 across the last twelve months — a middle-of-the-road volume that supports broad price indications without pinning a specific street. Individual sales ranged from £17k to £479k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — terraced houses led with 40% but the mix is diverse, while semi-detached houses accounted for 36% and flats accounted for 17%.
The LS5 2AB dataset is a reasonable baseline, but decisions at the individual-property level should still lean on matched comparables rather than the area median alone. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 4.7%, based on ONS regional rents.
