Section 06
Ownership and new build in Benslys Drift, Halesworth
19 of the sales on record are leasehold and 22 freehold — 46.3% 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 £60,000 and the median freehold sale £115,498 — a gap of +92.5%. 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 | 19 | 46.3% | £60,000 |
| Freehold | 22 | 53.7% | £115,498 |
Section 09

Within Halesworth the street ranks 197 of 200 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £170,000 (-54.7%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,032 per square metre, across 23 of the 41 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
