Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Rectory Drive, Shifnal 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 | 22 | 50.0% | £387,000 | £165,000 – £550,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 20 | 45.5% | £146,250 | £59,500 – £250,000 |
| Terraced | 2 | 4.5% | £85,000 | £85,000 – £108,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Rectory Drive, Shifnal
22 of the sales on record are leasehold and 22 freehold — 50.0% 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.
The median leasehold sale is £127,125 and the median freehold sale £393,475 — a gap of +209.5%. 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 | 22 | 50.0% | £127,125 |
| Freehold | 22 | 50.0% | £393,475 |
| New build | 4 | 9.1% | £119,750 |
| Existing home | 40 | 90.9% | £194,975 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -38.6%. 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 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 Rectory Drive, Shifnal compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Rectory Drive, Shifnal sits above that national figure — +14.3%.
Within Shifnal the street ranks 86 of 161 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £195,000 (-7.7%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £59,500 to £550,000. 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.
