How Thorne Way, Boston prices moved
The chart tracks the median Thorne Way, Boston house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2017. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £57,000 | £126,567 |
| 2000s | 4 | £78,500 | £143,004 |
| 2010s | 1 | £142,500 | £200,925 |
The highest yearly median on record for Thorne Way, Boston is £150,000 in 2005; the lowest is £39,600 in 1998. Across the full 23-year record the cash median has moved from £68,500 to £142,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £152,102, so the real change over the whole record is +27.5% — about +1.11% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: -5.0% in cash against -29.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

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 Thorne Way, Boston values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Thorne Way, Boston 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 81 | 58.3% | £84,950 | £38,500 – £320,000 |
| Semi-detached | 38 | 27.3% | £59,950 | £38,500 – £245,000 |
| Terraced | 20 | 14.4% | £51,000 | £36,575 – £144,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Thorne Way, Boston
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 139 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 | 139 | 100.0% | £79,250 |
| New build | 53 | 38.1% | £59,990 |
| Existing home | 86 | 61.9% | £122,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -50.8%. 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.

Living in Thorne Way, Boston
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Boston, 42.3% of 38,000 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 7.3% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Boston at £800 a month as of Jun 2026 — £600 for a one-bedroom home and £916 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £79,250 here, that rent is a gross yield of 12.11% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
No street-level crime was published for PE20 in Jun 2026 by Lincolnshire. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Thorne Way, Boston?
The median price paid in Thorne Way, Boston across every sale on the register is £79,250. 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.

In cash, the median rose -5.0% between 2005 and 2017. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -29.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Thorne Way, Boston house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £150,000, set in 2005. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 7 Jan 2026. 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.
