What stands out in the records

  • Houses and flats in recorded sales

    The house median is £408,750 from 74 sales; the flat median is £240,000 from 44 sales in EN9 1. These are different property groups, and the transactions are from 2025. Different property mixes can change the medians.

  • Mapped parks nearby

    The nearest mapped park is 0.2 km from the EN9 1 sector centre, with 13 mapped parks within 1 km. These are map counts and straight-line distances, not a measure of park quality or access routes.

  • Broadband availability

    Gigabit availability averages 89.0% across 217 residential postcode records in EN9 1, using Ofcom's January 2026 snapshot. This gives each postcode equal weight, not each home. Check the exact address for service.

Recorded sales cover 2025; these medians are not current asking prices. Distances are straight lines between approximate sector centres, not travel routes. Missing values remain unknown.

How these comparisons were made

Sale medians come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data for England and Wales. Suggestion reasons use the available sale medians, Ofcom January 2026 residential broadband availability, calculated as an unweighted mean of postcode percentages and undated OpenStreetMap station, supermarket and park locations. Distances to mapped places are also straight lines from approximate sector centres. A suggestion shares several measures with this sector; it is not a suitability score.

Sector sale medians come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data for England and Wales. The guide shows standard residential transactions for 2025, grouped by property type, with at least five sales per published median. School locations were processed from Get Information about Schools with OpenStreetMap fallback where needed. Check current English school inspection reports with Ofsted. Recorded crime counts use Police.uk open data; the processed sector file does not retain an observation period.
