Section 02
The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

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 Sheilings, Freshwater 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. The Sheilings, Freshwater 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 | 16 | 59.3% | £200,000 | £76,000 – £310,000 |
| Semi-detached | 11 | 40.7% | £150,000 | £60,000 – £350,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in The Sheilings, Freshwater
1 of the sales on record are leasehold and 26 freehold — 3.7% 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 £141,740 and the median freehold sale £193,500 — a gap of +36.5%. 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 | 1 | 3.7% | £141,740 |
| Freehold | 26 | 96.3% | £193,500 |
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 Sheilings, Freshwater compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Sheilings, Freshwater sits above that national figure — +18.7%.
Within Freshwater the street ranks 50 of 113 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £169,000 (+10.7%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,995 per square metre, across 6 of the 27 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 £60,000 to £350,000. 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.

What is the average house price in The Sheilings, Freshwater?

How many homes have sold in The Sheilings, Freshwater?
27 sales are on record for The Sheilings, Freshwater, the most recent completing on 26 Feb 2025. 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 Sheilings, Freshwater?
£1,995 per square metre, from the 6 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 26 Feb 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.
