What sells here

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Birch Lane, Ingatestone

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 44 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%
Freehold44100.0%£437,500
New build511.4%£299,500
Existing home3988.6%£465,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -35.6%. 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 Birch Lane, Ingatestone compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Birch Lane, Ingatestone sits above that national figure — +177.8%.

Within Ingatestone the street ranks 72 of 153 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £365,000 (+19.9%).

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 £37,050 to £1,075,000. 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.
