How Cornwallis Road, Lymington prices moved
The chart tracks the median Cornwallis Road, Lymington house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2006 to 2010. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 3 | £214,500 | £390,756 |
| 2010s | 1 | £270,000 | £380,700 |
The highest yearly median on record for Cornwallis Road, Lymington is £270,000 in 2010; the lowest is £210,000 in 2006. Across the full 5-year record the cash median has moved from £210,000 to £270,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £373,864, so the real change over the whole record is +15.3% — about +3.63% 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
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.

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 Cornwallis Road, Lymington 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. Cornwallis Road, Lymington 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 | 84 | 95.5% | £227,000 | £56,000 – £585,000 |
| Detached | 4 | 4.5% | £620,000 | £210,000 – £985,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Cornwallis Road, Lymington
84 of the sales on record are leasehold and 4 freehold — 95.5% 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 £227,000 and the median freehold sale £640,000 — a gap of +181.9%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 84 | 95.5% | £227,000 |
| Freehold | 4 | 4.5% | £640,000 |
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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across New Forest, 41.4% of 81,792 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in New Forest at £1,238 a month as of Jun 2026 — £860 for a one-bedroom home and £1,384 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £227,125 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.54% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of SO41, 53 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 22 violent, 0 burglary, 1 vehicle-related and 2 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.2 times quieter.
Against the 175,785 residents the 2021 census counted in New Forest, that is 0.30 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Cornwallis Road, Lymington
The 2021 census counted 175,785 residents in New Forest across 77,567 households. 74.8% of those households own their home and 25.1% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
11 state and independent schools have a SO41 postcode: 10 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Cornwallis Road, Lymington compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Cornwallis Road, Lymington sits above that national figure — +44.2%.
Within Lymington the street ranks 442 of 581 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £265,000 (-14.3%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,809 per square metre, across 19 of the 88 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 £56,000 to £985,000. 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.
Cornwallis Road, Lymington sits in New Forest, in the South East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in New Forest at 10.3 times median local earnings of £36,792 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.
