Section 03
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 Forest Edge, Drybrook values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Forest Edge, Drybrook 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 | 28 | 75.7% | £230,000 | £158,500 – £368,000 |
| Terraced | 6 | 16.2% | £87,500 | £64,000 – £244,000 |
| Semi-detached | 3 | 8.1% | £260,000 | £132,500 – £380,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Forest Edge, Drybrook
3 of the sales on record are leasehold and 34 freehold — 8.1% 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 £70,000 and the median freehold sale £231,750 — a gap of +231.1%. 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 | 3 | 8.1% | £70,000 |
| Freehold | 34 | 91.9% | £231,750 |
| New build | 13 | 35.1% | £240,000 |
| Existing home | 24 | 64.9% | £217,500 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +10.3%. 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 Forest Edge, Drybrook compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Forest Edge, Drybrook sits above that national figure — +46.0%.
Within Drybrook the street ranks 7 of 50 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £165,000 (+39.4%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,956 per square metre, across 11 of the 37 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 £64,000 to £380,000. 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.
