Section 02
The most recent sales

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 Springfields, Dunmow 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. Springfields, Dunmow 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 | 43 | 59.7% | £249,950 | £80,000 – £600,000 |
| Semi-detached | 26 | 36.1% | £263,000 | £104,000 – £575,000 |
| Terraced | 3 | 4.2% | £410,000 | £282,000 – £440,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Springfields, Dunmow
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 72 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 | 72 | 100.0% | £262,750 |
| New build | 2 | 2.8% | £313,748 |
| Existing home | 70 | 97.2% | £262,500 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +19.5%. 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.

Living in Springfields, Dunmow
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Braintree, 48.3% of 69,960 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 274 | 0.4% |
| B | 10,725 | 15.3% |
| C | 22,773 | 32.6% |
| D | 23,376 | 33.4% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Braintree at £1,224 a month as of Jun 2026 — £858 for a one-bedroom home and £1,366 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £262,750 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.59% 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 CM6, 35 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 16 violent, 1 burglary, 3 vehicle-related and 2 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 4.8 times quieter.
Against the 155,268 residents the 2021 census counted in Braintree, that is 0.23 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.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Springfields, Dunmow
The 2021 census counted 155,268 residents in Braintree across 64,983 households. 68.6% of those households own their home and 31.4% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
10 state and independent schools have a CM6 postcode: 9 primary, 1 all-through. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Springfields, Dunmow compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Springfields, Dunmow sits above that national figure — +66.8%.
Within Dunmow the street ranks 313 of 462 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £289,950 (-9.4%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,792 per square metre, across 20 of the 72 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 £80,000 to £600,000. 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.
Springfields, Dunmow sits in Braintree, in the East of England.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Braintree at 9.2 times median local earnings of £37,704 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Springfields, Dunmow?
The median price paid in Springfields, Dunmow across every sale on the register is £262,750. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Springfields, Dunmow?
72 sales are on record for Springfields, Dunmow, the most recent completing on 30 Jun 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +255.6% between 1999 and 2018. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +132.6%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Springfields, Dunmow house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £480,000, set in 2018. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Springfields, Dunmow?
£2,792 per square metre, from the 20 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 30 Jun 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
