How Garden Close, Kington prices moved

The chart tracks the median Garden Close, Kington house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2009 to 2017. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Garden Close, Kington is £158,500 in 2017; the lowest is £125,000 in 2009. Across the full 9-year record the cash median has moved from £125,000 to £158,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £205,420, so the real change over the whole record is +5.0% — about +0.61% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +26.8% in cash against +5.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Garden Close, Kington

3 of the sales on record are leasehold and 60 freehold — 4.8% 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 £55,000 and the median freehold sale £145,000 — a gap of +163.6%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -13.3%. 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.

Section 09

How Garden Close, Kington compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Garden Close, Kington sits below that national figure — -7.9%.

Within Kington the street ranks 37 of 67 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £160,000 (-9.4%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,600 per square metre, across 5 of the 63 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 £33,500 to £225,000. 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.
