Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to The Square, South Molton values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. The Square, South Molton 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 | 27 | 79.4% | £162,000 | £25,000 – £435,000 |
| Semi-detached | 4 | 11.8% | £192,500 | £177,000 – £255,000 |
| Detached | 3 | 8.8% | £86,000 | £79,500 – £178,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in The Square, South Molton
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 34 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 | 34 | 100.0% | £171,000 |
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 The Square, South Molton compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Square, South Molton sits above that national figure — +8.6%.
Within South Molton the street ranks 81 of 134 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £183,000 (-6.6%).
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 £25,000 to £435,000. 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.

How many homes have sold in The Square, South Molton?
34 sales are on record for The Square, South Molton, the most recent completing on 7 Oct 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
What is the price per square metre in The Square, South Molton?

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 7 Oct 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
