What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Pains Hill, Oxted 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 | 35 | 72.9% | £765,000 | £250,000 – £2,780,000 |
| Semi-detached | 6 | 12.5% | £367,500 | £305,000 – £1,075,000 |
| Terraced | 6 | 12.5% | £625,000 | £170,000 – £1,000,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 1 | 2.1% | £315,000 | £315,000 – £315,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Pains Hill, Oxted
1 of the sales on record are leasehold and 47 freehold — 2.1% 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 £315,000 and the median freehold sale £765,000 — a gap of +142.9%. 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 | 1 | 2.1% | £315,000 |
| Freehold | 47 | 97.9% | £765,000 |
A further 3 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 Pains Hill, Oxted compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Pains Hill, Oxted sits above that national figure — +369.8%.
Within Oxted the street ranks 26 of 185 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £350,000 (+111.4%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £4,424 per square metre, across 12 of the 48 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 £170,000 to £2,780,000. 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.

48 sales are on record for Pains Hill, Oxted, the most recent completing on 1 Aug 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
What is the price per square metre in Pains Hill, Oxted?
£4,424 per square metre, from the 12 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 1 Aug 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
