What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Main Street, Kirkby Stephen 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 | 26 | 65.0% | £106,270 | £25,000 – £223,000 |
| Semi-detached | 9 | 22.5% | £89,000 | £43,000 – £167,000 |
| Detached | 5 | 12.5% | £227,500 | £85,000 – £300,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Main Street, Kirkby Stephen
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 40 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 | 40 | 100.0% | £112,500 |
| New build | 1 | 2.5% | £89,000 |
| Existing home | 39 | 97.5% | £115,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -22.6%. 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 7 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 Main Street, Kirkby Stephen compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Main Street, Kirkby Stephen sits below that national figure — -28.6%.
Within Kirkby Stephen the street ranks 50 of 65 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £155,000 (-27.4%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,000 per square metre, across 1 of the 40 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 £25,000 to £300,000. 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.
