Section 02
The most recent sales

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. The Thatchings, Polegate 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 | 25 | 53.2% | £194,000 | £113,000 – £450,000 |
| Semi-detached | 19 | 40.4% | £184,000 | £53,000 – £310,000 |
| Terraced | 3 | 6.4% | £187,000 | £145,000 – £315,500 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in The Thatchings, Polegate
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 47 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 | 47 | 100.0% | £187,000 |
| New build | 9 | 19.1% | £146,000 |
| Existing home | 38 | 80.9% | £221,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -33.9%. 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 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.
Section 09
How The Thatchings, Polegate compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Thatchings, Polegate sits above that national figure — +18.7%.
Within Polegate the street ranks 99 of 174 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £183,500 (+1.9%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,341 per square metre, across 10 of the 47 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 £53,000 to £450,000. 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.

Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in The Thatchings, Polegate?

When were The Thatchings, Polegate house prices at their highest?

What is the price per square metre in The Thatchings, Polegate?
£2,341 per square metre, from the 10 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.
