Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Olympus Road, Henlow 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 52 | 100.0% | £207,000 | £170,245 – £375,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Olympus Road, Henlow
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 52 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 | 52 | 100.0% | £208,753 |
| New build | 20 | 38.5% | £199,250 |
| Existing home | 32 | 61.5% | £256,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -22.2%. 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.
A further 1 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 Olympus Road, Henlow compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Olympus Road, Henlow sits above that national figure — +32.5%.
Within Henlow the street ranks 87 of 109 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £249,995 (-16.5%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,929 per square metre, across 11 of the 52 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 £170,245 to £375,000. 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.
