What sells here

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Ridgeway Close, Lightwater
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 65 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 | 65 | 100.0% | £415,000 |
| New build | 3 | 4.6% | £390,000 |
| Existing home | 62 | 95.4% | £420,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -7.1%. 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

Within Lightwater the street ranks 19 of 81 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £250,000 (+66.0%).
