Property Terminology :- A Cul- De- Sac!

A 'cul-de-sac' is a street or road that is closed at one end, forming a dead end.

It is a French term that means "bottom of the bag," referring to the shape of the street, which typically ends in a circular or t-shaped turnaround. Cul-de-sacs are often used in residential neighbourhoods as a way to reduce traffic and create a sense of community. They can also be used to improve safety by limiting the number of places where vehicles can enter and exit the neighbourhood

Attleborough’s property market has a pulse, measured by asking prices per square foot and shaped by the homes currently for sale. This snapshot helps homeowners and landlords read the mood rather than pure value change.

With plans announced to raise the council tax surcharge on higher-value homes, this snapshot looks at how many £2m-plus properties have actually sold across the UK this year. The data shows a highly concentrated market, dominated by London, and reveals just how small this sector is nationally despite the noise around a “mansion tax.”

Despite the headlines, first-time buyers in Attleborough are not locked out of homeownership. When you look beyond prices and focus on monthly mortgage costs, affordability today is far better than many realise. The data challenges the doom narrative and shows that, while deposits are tough, buying a first home is still possible.

The semi-detached home remains Britain’s most loved housing type, shaping family life for generations. This article explores how the value of semis varies widely across the UK, from London’s seven-figure prices to far more attainable regions, and why their emotional pull remains as strong as ever.
