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.

Section 03
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 Ash Lane, Wells 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. Ash Lane, Wells 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 | 51 | 81.0% | £465,000 | £40,000 – £1,300,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 5 | 7.9% | £52,000 | £35,500 – £75,000 |
| Semi-detached | 4 | 6.3% | £250,000 | £73,000 – £526,000 |
| Terraced | 3 | 4.8% | £240,000 | £96,255 – £351,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Ash Lane, Wells
5 of the sales on record are leasehold and 58 freehold — 7.9% 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 £52,000 and the median freehold sale £420,000 — a gap of +707.7%. 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 | 5 | 7.9% | £52,000 |
| Freehold | 58 | 92.1% | £420,000 |
| New build | 1 | 1.6% | £73,000 |
| Existing home | 62 | 98.4% | £386,250 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -81.1%. 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
How Ash Lane, Wells compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Ash Lane, Wells sits above that national figure — +136.5%.
Within Wells the street ranks 38 of 345 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £195,000 (+91.0%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,776 per square metre, across 24 of the 63 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 £35,500 to £1,300,000. 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 Ash Lane, Wells?

How many homes have sold in Ash Lane, Wells?
63 sales are on record for Ash Lane, Wells, the most recent completing on 10 Apr 2026. 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 Ash Lane, Wells?
£2,776 per square metre, from the 24 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 10 Apr 2026. 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.
