Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Melbreak Avenue, Cockermouth 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 | 48 | 94.1% | £132,000 | £25,000 – £287,000 |
| Terraced | 3 | 5.9% | £119,000 | £52,000 – £120,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Melbreak Avenue, Cockermouth
2 of the sales on record are leasehold and 49 freehold — 3.9% 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 £132,000 and the median freehold sale £130,000 — a gap of -1.5%. 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 | 2 | 3.9% | £132,000 |
| Freehold | 49 | 96.1% | £130,000 |
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.
Section 09
How Melbreak Avenue, Cockermouth compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Melbreak Avenue, Cockermouth sits below that national figure — -17.5%.
Within Cockermouth the street ranks 168 of 270 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £155,000 (-16.1%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,686 per square metre, across 18 of the 51 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 £25,000 to £287,000. 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.
