What sells here

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Mallard Close, Shefford
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 69 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 | 69 | 100.0% | £200,000 |
| New build | 28 | 40.6% | £145,000 |
| Existing home | 41 | 59.4% | £233,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -37.8%. 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.
Section 09
How Mallard Close, Shefford compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Mallard Close, Shefford sits above that national figure — +27.0%.
Within Shefford the street ranks 147 of 214 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £225,000 (-11.1%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,813 per square metre, across 23 of the 69 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
