House prices in North West Leicestershire have risen by over 80 per cent over the past decade according to a financial website.

They have soared in the UK during that time, but some areas have seen much bigger gains than others - and one has even seen a fall.

Thisismoney.co.uk reports that official figures from the ONS show the average UK house prices rose from £167,716 in January 2013 to £290,000 at the end of January 2023 - a gain of 73 per cent.

But 17 areas have seen prices at least double, with the biggest gain standing at 119 per cent - Waltham Forest.

The average house price in North West Leicestershire - including Coalville and Ashby de la Zouch - 10 years ago was £150,600.

Now it is £278,280, a rise of £127,00, which is 85 per cent.

Prices in Hinckley and Bosworth shot up slightly further - from £155,860 to £290,410, a rise of 86 per cent.
