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 Wish Street, Rye values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Wish Street, Rye 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 28 | 53.8% | £175,000 | £42,500 – £425,000 |
| Semi-detached | 16 | 30.8% | £175,000 | £53,750 – £370,000 |
| Detached | 6 | 11.5% | £205,000 | £65,000 – £450,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 2 | 3.8% | £40,000 | £40,000 – £53,500 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Wish Street, Rye
3 of the sales on record are leasehold and 49 freehold — 5.8% 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 £53,500 and the median freehold sale £181,000 — a gap of +238.3%. 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 | 3 | 5.8% | £53,500 |
| Freehold | 49 | 94.2% | £181,000 |
A further 4 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 Wish Street, Rye compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Wish Street, Rye sits above that national figure — +11.1%.
Within Rye the street ranks 183 of 235 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £225,000 (-22.2%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,190 per square metre, across 11 of the 52 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 £40,000 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.
