Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Fore Street, Lostwithiel is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Fore Street, Lostwithiel

9 of the sales on record are leasehold and 59 freehold — 13.2% 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.

The median leasehold sale is £69,000 and the median freehold sale £155,000 — a gap of +124.6%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold913.2%£69,000
Freehold5986.8%£155,000
New build11.5%£77,900
Existing home6798.5%£145,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -46.3%. 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 12 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 Fore Street, Lostwithiel compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Fore Street, Lostwithiel sits below that national figure — -12.1%.

Within Lostwithiel the street ranks 47 of 74 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £177,500 (-22.0%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,667 per square metre, across 3 of the 68 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 £18,500 to £455,000. 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.
