How Poppy Way, Leiston prices moved
The chart tracks the median Poppy Way, Leiston house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2015 to 2018. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010s | 3 | £269,995 | £380,693 |
The highest yearly median on record for Poppy Way, Leiston is £269,995 in 2016; the lowest is £249,995 in 2015. Across the full 4-year record the cash median has moved from £249,995 to £269,995.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £352,493, so the real change over the whole record is +2.1% — about +0.69% 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.
Section 02
The most recent sales

Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Poppy Way, Leiston values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Poppy Way, Leiston 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 | 19 | 54.3% | £315,000 | £249,995 – £525,000 |
| Semi-detached | 9 | 25.7% | £234,995 | £224,995 – £340,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Poppy Way, Leiston
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 35 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 | 35 | 100.0% | £285,000 |
| New build | 24 | 68.6% | £254,995 |
| Existing home | 11 | 31.4% | £340,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -25.0%. 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 Poppy Way, Leiston compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Poppy Way, Leiston sits above that national figure — +81.0%.
Within Leiston the street ranks 25 of 113 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £150,000 (+90.0%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,323 per square metre, across 2 of the 35 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
