What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Recreation Ground, Stansted 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 24 | 45.3% | £147,000 | £38,000 – £420,000 |
| Semi-detached | 16 | 30.2% | £455,000 | £130,000 – £850,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Recreation Ground, Stansted
24 of the sales on record are leasehold and 29 freehold — 45.3% 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 £147,975 and the median freehold sale £415,000 — a gap of +180.5%. 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 | 24 | 45.3% | £147,975 |
| Freehold | 29 | 54.7% | £415,000 |
Section 09
How Recreation Ground, Stansted compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Recreation Ground, Stansted sits above that national figure — +74.6%.
Within Stansted the street ranks 77 of 130 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £251,520 (+9.3%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,827 per square metre, across 21 of the 53 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 £38,000 to £1,000,000. 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.

53 sales are on record for Recreation Ground, Stansted, the most recent completing on 18 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 Recreation Ground, Stansted?
£2,827 per square metre, from the 21 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.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 18 Nov 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.
