Section 02
The most recent sales

Section 03
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 The Postern, London values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. The Postern, London 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 14 | 100.0% | £750,000 | £220,000 – £2,500,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in The Postern, London
14 of the sales on record are leasehold and 0 freehold — 100.0% 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 | 14 | 100.0% | £795,000 |
| Freehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| New build | 1 | 7.1% | £220,000 |
| Existing home | 13 | 92.9% | £840,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -73.8%. 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 The Postern, London compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Postern, London sits above that national figure — +404.8%.
Within London the street ranks 1585 of 21431 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £285,000 (+178.9%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £220,000 to £2,500,000. 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.
