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 Old School Close, Petworth values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.
| Address | First recorded sale | Most recent sale | Cash a year | Real a year |

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Old School Close, Petworth 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 10 | 41.7% | £425,000 | £385,000 – £590,000 |
| Terraced | 10 | 41.7% | £400,000 | £365,000 – £465,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Old School Close, Petworth
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 24 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 | 24 | 100.0% | £411,000 |
| New build | 9 | 37.5% | £425,000 |
| Existing home | 15 | 62.5% | £410,000 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +3.7%. 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 Old School Close, Petworth compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Old School Close, Petworth sits above that national figure — +161.0%.
Within Petworth the street ranks 23 of 99 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £325,000 (+26.5%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £5,242 per square metre, across 1 of the 24 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 £365,000 to £775,000. 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.
