Homes that sold twice

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Links Close, Wigton 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 | 18 | 48.6% | £49,500 | £35,500 – £118,000 |
| Semi-detached | 17 | 45.9% | £85,000 | £37,000 – £200,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 2 | 5.4% | £18,500 | £18,500 – £60,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Links Close, Wigton
3 of the sales on record are leasehold and 34 freehold — 8.1% 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 £37,000 and the median freehold sale £65,500 — a gap of +77.0%. 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 | 3 | 8.1% | £37,000 |
| Freehold | 34 | 91.9% | £65,500 |

Living in Links Close, Wigton
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Cumberland, 37.3% of 137,831 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 7.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 656 | 0.5% |
| B | 13,329 | 9.7% |
| C | 37,364 | 27.1% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Cumberland at £670 a month as of Jun 2026 — £499 for a one-bedroom home and £772 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £60,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 13.40% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
No street-level crime was published for CA7 in Jun 2026 by Cumbria. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

How Links Close, Wigton compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Links Close, Wigton sits below that national figure — -61.9%.
Within Wigton the street ranks 251 of 288 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £115,000 (-47.8%).
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 £18,500 to £200,000. 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.
Links Close, Wigton sits in Cumberland, in the North West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Cumberland at 4.2 times median local earnings of £42,808 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Links Close, Wigton?

How many homes have sold in Links Close, Wigton?
37 sales are on record for Links Close, Wigton, the most recent completing on 10 Jun 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 Links Close, Wigton?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 10 Jun 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.
