What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Browsholme Close, Carnforth is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Browsholme Close, Carnforth

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 61 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold00.0%
Freehold61100.0%£132,500
New build1423.0%£83,975
Existing home4777.0%£170,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -50.6%. 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Lancaster at £811 a month as of Jun 2026 — £593 for a one-bedroom home and £911 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £132,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.34% 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.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of LA5, 4 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 1 violent, 0 burglary, 1 vehicle-related and 0 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 41.8 times quieter.

Against the 142,934 residents the 2021 census counted in Lancaster, that is 0.03 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Within Carnforth the street ranks 379 of 498 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £169,000 (-21.6%).

Browsholme Close, Carnforth sits in Lancaster, in the North West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Lancaster at 5.8 times median local earnings of £34,731 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
