What sells here

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Wantsume Lees, Sandwich
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 37 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 | 37 | 100.0% | £170,830 |
A further 2 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 Wantsume Lees, Sandwich compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Wantsume Lees, Sandwich sits above that national figure — +8.5%.
Within Sandwich the street ranks 106 of 143 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £199,950 (-14.6%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,576 per square metre, across 7 of the 37 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
