Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Lea Combe, Axminster 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 28 | 62.2% | £157,500 | £66,500 – £263,263 |
| Detached | 12 | 26.7% | £174,000 | £63,950 – £249,950 |
| Terraced | 5 | 11.1% | £125,000 | £120,000 – £168,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Lea Combe, Axminster
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 45 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 | 45 | 100.0% | £164,950 |
| New build | 2 | 4.4% | £122,500 |
| Existing home | 43 | 95.6% | £168,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -27.1%. 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 1 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 Lea Combe, Axminster compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Lea Combe, Axminster sits above that national figure — +4.7%.
Within Axminster the street ranks 139 of 195 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £195,000 (-15.4%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,948 per square metre, across 17 of the 45 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 £63,950 to £263,263. 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.
