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 The Quay, Fowey values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. The Quay, Fowey is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in The Quay, Fowey

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 18 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold00.0%
Freehold18100.0%£205,000
New build15.6%£67,500
Existing home1794.4%£210,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -67.9%. 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.

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 The Quay, Fowey compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Quay, Fowey sits above that national figure — +30.2%.

Within Fowey the street ranks 55 of 74 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £235,000 (-12.8%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,311 per square metre, across 4 of the 18 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 £58,500 to £700,000. 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.

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in The Quay, Fowey?

How many homes have sold in The Quay, Fowey?

18 sales are on record for The Quay, Fowey, the most recent completing on 17 Jul 2023. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

What is the price per square metre in The Quay, Fowey?

£3,311 per square metre, from the 4 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 17 Jul 2023. 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.
