Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on LS21: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

LS21 sees about 20 sales a month, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.

When selling here, £320,000 is only the middle of a market that runs from £195,000 to £655,500, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

For buyers, on price, LS21 is above the UK average, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (72 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,361 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

Where the numbers are this loose, the free LS21 OfferCheck gives you something firmer to hold: flood, crime, planning and council tax, each with its source.

In plain English

What the Bradford (LS21) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £550,000 against £180,000 for flats: about 3.1 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £195,000 and £655,500, so the median says little about any one home.
  • Nearly all of these sales (94%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
  • This is an active district: about 20 recorded sales a month.

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 LS21 report: your questions

What is the average house price in LS21?
The typical (median) sold price in LS21 is £320,000, from 250 recorded sales between 11 August 2025 and 20 August 2026. Most sales fell between £195,000 and £655,500. That is above 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 LS21?
Typical sold prices by type in LS21: terraced homes £270,000 (89 sales), semi-detached homes £310,000 (79 sales), detached homes £550,000 (49 sales), flats £180,000 (16 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in LS21?
LS21 is billed by Bradford, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,361 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 LS21?
The Department for Education's register lists 6 open schools within 3 km of the LS21 district centre, the nearest being Otley Prince Henry's Grammar School Specialist Language College (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 LS21 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 LS21 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 LS21 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 9, with a median of decile 9 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 LS21 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near LS21?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 72 applications within 500 m of the LS21 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 LS21 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 245 distinct addresses in the records we hold for LS21, 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 LS21 cover my exact street?
LS21 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.
