What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Boscaswell Downs, Penzance 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 | 29 | 49.2% | £223,000 | £38,000 – £428,000 |
| Semi-detached | 18 | 30.5% | £210,000 | £24,000 – £422,000 |
| Terraced | 12 | 20.3% | £177,000 | £32,000 – £375,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Boscaswell Downs, Penzance
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 59 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 | 59 | 100.0% | £223,000 |
| New build | 3 | 5.1% | £160,000 |
| Existing home | 56 | 94.9% | £235,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -31.9%. 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 6 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 Boscaswell Downs, Penzance compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Boscaswell Downs, Penzance sits above that national figure — +41.6%.
Within Penzance the street ranks 212 of 749 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £163,000 (+36.8%).
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 £24,000 to £428,000. 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.
