Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on LN9: steady sales, so price from the evidence

LN9 sees about 16 sales a month, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.

If you are selling, with detached homes at £255,748 and terraced homes at £148,250, the £115,000 to £375,000 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; roughly 16 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.

Sell house

If you are buying, typical prices in LN9 sit well below the UK average, so ask what is behind the lower prices before you assume a bargain.

On any LN9 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (112 applications on record within 500 m), whether a new-build premium is baked into the price and flood risk over the long term, and ask a conveyancer to read the title.

With averages this broad, the free LN9 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning and council tax from the official sources.

In plain English

What the East Lindsey (LN9) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £255,748 against £148,250 for terraced homes: about 1.7 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £115,000 and £375,000, so the median says little about any one home.
  • Nearly all of these sales (97%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
  • 17% of these sales were new builds, which often sell at a premium the first time around and can lift the median above what resale homes make.
  • This is an active district: about 16 recorded sales a month.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so LN9 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in LN9: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The LN9 report: your questions

What is the average house price in LN9?
The typical (median) sold price in LN9 is £200,000, from 250 recorded sales between 16 May 2025 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £115,000 and £375,000. That is well below the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in LN9?
Typical sold prices by type in LN9: detached homes £255,748 (122 sales), terraced homes £148,250 (58 sales), semi-detached homes £186,818 (50 sales), flats £94,000 (6 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in LN9?
LN9 is billed by East Lindsey, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,276 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near LN9?
The Department for Education's register lists 4 open schools within 3 km of the LN9 district centre, the nearest being Horncastle Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the LN9 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is LN9 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 LN9 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 7, with a median of decile 7 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like LN9 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near LN9?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 112 applications within 500 m of the LN9 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in LN9 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 242 distinct addresses in the records we hold for LN9, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does LN9 cover my exact street?
LN9 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
