How School Lane, Forest Row prices moved

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 School Lane, Forest Row 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. School Lane, Forest Row 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 | 13 | 100.0% | £347,000 | £285,950 – £595,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in School Lane, Forest Row
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 13 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 | 13 | 100.0% | £347,000 |
| New build | 5 | 38.5% | £299,950 |
| Existing home | 8 | 61.5% | £442,500 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -32.2%. 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 School Lane, Forest Row compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. School Lane, Forest Row sits above that national figure — +120.3%.
Within Forest Row the street ranks 27 of 54 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £289,950 (+19.7%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £285,950 to £595,000. 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.
