What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Southfields, Shefford is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Southfields, Shefford

34 of the sales on record are leasehold and 13 freehold — 72.3% 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 £84,975 and the median freehold sale £148,000 — a gap of +74.2%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Freehold1327.7%£148,000
New build12.1%£29,950
Existing home4697.9%£94,850
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -68.4%. 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 Southfields, Shefford compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Southfields, Shefford sits below that national figure — -41.0%.

Within Shefford the street ranks 213 of 214 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £225,000 (-58.7%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,960 per square metre, across 7 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 £25,000 to £320,000. 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.
