Headingley property market: common questions

Where is Headingley?

Headingley is in central Leeds, in West Yorkshire. Figures for Headingley cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.

What is the average house price in Headingley?

The median asking price across the 111 homes for sale in Headingley is £270,000 (as of 5 October 2026). We quote the median (the middle listing) rather than a mean, because a handful of very expensive homes would pull a mean upwards. Half of listings ask between £200,000 and £365,000. That is 20% above Leeds. Homes that actually sold in Headingley went for a median £259,225 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).

Are house prices in Headingley rising or falling?

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Headingley is up 52% over the last 10 years and up 4% over the last 12 months (12 months to February 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Headingley cheaper than Leeds?

No: asking prices in Headingley are typically higher than across Leeds. The median asking price in Headingley is £270,000 against £225k across Leeds: 20% above Leeds. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The premium holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How much do flats and houses cost in Headingley?

The median asking price for a flat in Headingley is £180,000. Houses are quoted by type rather than as one figure, because the mix moves the number more than the market does: the largest group on the market is terraced houses, at a median £295,000 across 63 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Headingley?

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (111 in Headingley), refreshed daily, as of 5 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Headingley cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
  • Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Headingley since May 2026.
  • Leeds comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Leeds, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
  • Sold figures: HM Land Registry price paid data. Sold prices and sales counts cover the 12 months to February 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to August 2026, with floor areas from EPC certificates (the two run on different pipelines, and the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered). England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
