Section 06
Ownership and new build in Barley Croft, Somerton
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 29 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 | 29 | 100.0% | £130,000 |
| New build | 10 | 34.5% | £82,995 |
| Existing home | 19 | 65.5% | £212,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -60.9%. 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

Within Somerton the street ranks 165 of 179 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £220,000 (-40.9%).
