What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Dent Street, Shildon 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 | 68 | 100.0% | £43,500 | £10,000 – £98,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Dent Street, Shildon
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 68 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 | 68 | 100.0% | £44,000 |
A further 27 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 Dent Street, Shildon compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Dent Street, Shildon sits below that national figure — -72.1%.
Within Shildon the street ranks 123 of 159 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £59,500 (-26.1%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £718 per square metre, across 30 of the 68 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 £10,000 to £98,000. 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.

When were Dent Street, Shildon house prices at their highest?
