Ownership and new build in Longmans Lane, Cottingham

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -37.5%. 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.

Section 09

How Longmans Lane, Cottingham compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Longmans Lane, Cottingham sits above that national figure — +82.9%.

Within Cottingham the street ranks 28 of 263 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £150,000 (+92.0%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,499 per square metre, across 10 of the 59 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

When were Longmans Lane, Cottingham house prices at their highest?
