Section 02
The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

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 Mill Lane, Southwold values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Mill Lane, Southwold 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 | 15 | 41.7% | £435,000 | £90,000 – £875,000 |
| Terraced | 15 | 41.7% | £445,000 | £132,000 – £715,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 6 | 16.7% | £450,000 | £108,000 – £650,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Mill Lane, Southwold
7 of the sales on record are leasehold and 29 freehold — 19.4% 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 £450,000 and the median freehold sale £445,000 — a gap of -1.1%. 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 | 7 | 19.4% | £450,000 |
| Freehold | 29 | 80.6% | £445,000 |
| New build | 4 | 11.1% | £397,500 |
| Existing home | 32 | 88.9% | £447,500 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -11.2%. 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 3 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 Mill Lane, Southwold compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Mill Lane, Southwold sits above that national figure — +184.1%.
Within Southwold the street ranks 23 of 134 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £265,000 (+68.9%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,969 per square metre, across 12 of the 36 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 £90,000 to £875,000. 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.

36 sales are on record for Mill Lane, Southwold, the most recent completing on 28 Nov 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 Mill Lane, Southwold?
£3,969 per square metre, from the 12 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
