Ownership and new build in St Edmunds Lane, Bures
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 12 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 | 12 | 100.0% | £402,500 |
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 St Edmunds Lane, Bures compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. St Edmunds Lane, Bures sits above that national figure — +155.6%.
Within Bures the street ranks 4 of 41 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £238,000 (+69.1%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,865 per square metre, across 2 of the 12 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 £180,000 to £950,000. 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.
