Calendar years; a year’s median needs 5 sales of the type, so gaps are years with fewer.

A new home sold for a median £378,253
against £387,330 for a home sold on, about the same, over three years. New homes are often a different mix from the homes sold on, so part of the gap is size and type.
5% of sales were leasehold
Nearly every flat in England and Wales is leasehold; among houses, 1.6% sold leasehold in Cringleford. A leasehold buyer owns the home for a fixed term and may pay ground rent and service charges; check the lease before you buy.
