What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Workhouse Lane, Winchelsea 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 10 | 66.7% | £320,000 | £65,000 – £650,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Workhouse Lane, Winchelsea
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 15 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 | 15 | 100.0% | £320,000 |
| New build | 1 | 6.7% | £40,000 |
| Existing home | 14 | 93.3% | £331,475 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -87.9%. 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

Within Winchelsea the street ranks 17 of 57 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £221,000 (+44.8%).
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.
