How Woodfields, Stansted prices moved
The chart tracks the median Woodfields, Stansted house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2021. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £64,750 | £143,776 |
| 2000s | 8 | £172,000 | £313,333 |
| 2010s | 6 | £250,000 | £352,500 |
| 2020s | 1 | £322,500 | £329,511 |
The highest yearly median on record for Woodfields, Stansted is £330,000 in 2017; the lowest is £57,750 in 1996. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £57,750 to £322,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £125,273, so the real change over the whole record is +225.3% — about +4.83% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +45.3% in cash against +9.3% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Woodfields, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Woodfields, Stansted
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 178 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 | 178 | 100.0% | £171,000 |
A further 11 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 Woodfields, Stansted compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Woodfields, Stansted sits above that national figure — +8.6%.
Within Stansted the street ranks 120 of 130 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £251,520 (-32.0%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,407 per square metre, across 37 of the 178 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 £32,000 to £615,000. 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Woodfields, Stansted?
The median price paid in Woodfields, Stansted across every sale on the register is £171,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Woodfields, Stansted?

When were Woodfields, Stansted house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £330,000, set in 2017. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Woodfields, Stansted?
£2,407 per square metre, from the 37 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.
