What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Lapwings, Aldeburgh is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 11 | 84.6% | £355,000 | £290,000 – £422,500 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Lapwings, Aldeburgh
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 13 freehold — 0.0% 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 13 | 100.0% | £350,000 |
| New build | 12 | 92.3% | £352,500 |
| Existing home | 1 | 7.7% | £350,000 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +0.7%. 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 2 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

Within Aldeburgh the street ranks 25 of 76 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £280,000 (+25.0%).
