Section 03
Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to The Croft, Ambleside values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. The Croft, Ambleside is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 20 | 71.4% | £260,000 | £59,500 – £424,000 |
| Terraced | 7 | 25.0% | £180,000 | £125,000 – £200,000 |
| Semi-detached | 1 | 3.6% | £140,000 | £140,000 – £140,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in The Croft, Ambleside
20 of the sales on record are leasehold and 8 freehold — 71.4% 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 £262,500 and the median freehold sale £172,500 — a gap of -34.3%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 20 | 71.4% | £262,500 |
| Freehold | 8 | 28.6% | £172,500 |
Section 09
How The Croft, Ambleside compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Croft, Ambleside sits above that national figure — +18.4%.
Within Ambleside the street ranks 89 of 115 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £249,500 (-25.3%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £59,500 to £424,000. 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in The Croft, Ambleside?
The median price paid in The Croft, Ambleside across every sale on the register is £186,500. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in The Croft, Ambleside?
28 sales are on record for The Croft, Ambleside, the most recent completing on 30 Sep 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
When were The Croft, Ambleside house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £107,500, set in 1998. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in The Croft, Ambleside?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 30 Sep 2024. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
