Section 06

Ownership and new build in Britten Close, Aldeburgh

41 of the sales on record are leasehold and 18 freehold — 69.5% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

The median leasehold sale is £109,000 and the median freehold sale £130,000 — a gap of +19.3%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -55.0%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

A further 3 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Section 09

How Britten Close, Aldeburgh compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Britten Close, Aldeburgh sits below that national figure — -28.3%.

Within Aldeburgh the street ranks 74 of 76 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £280,000 (-59.6%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,810 per square metre, across 7 of the 59 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £24,000 to £300,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
