What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Oakfields Avenue, Knebworth 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 40 | 97.6% | £490,000 | £128,000 – £1,550,000 |
| Semi-detached | 1 | 2.4% | £490,000 | £490,000 – £490,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Oakfields Avenue, Knebworth
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 41 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 | 41 | 100.0% | £490,000 |
| New build | 1 | 2.4% | £428,000 |
| Existing home | 40 | 97.6% | £495,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -13.5%. 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 Oakfields Avenue, Knebworth compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Oakfields Avenue, Knebworth sits above that national figure — +211.1%.
Within Knebworth the street ranks 21 of 97 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £235,000 (+108.5%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £4,137 per square metre, across 2 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.
The full range on record runs from £128,000 to £1,550,000. 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.
