What are roads and daily travel like in northern Ubud?
Tegallalang is about 20 minutes north of central Ubud, according to indonesia.travel. Actual travel time may differ.
Payangan is about 30 minutes from Ubud Palace. The Samsara Payangan description puts the airport drive at about two hours.
The Ayung river valley runs through Payangan. Tegallalang is known for the rice terraces that shape its landscape.
Map distance tells you little about a daily commute. Drive your regular route during the hours you expect to travel.

Why do Brighton, Indo-Terra and Bektu show different prices?
Brighton puts Tegallalang and Payangan at Rp 250–600 mn per are. This range comes from its February 2026 overview.
Indo-Terra combines Tampaksiring and Tegallalang at Rp 250–500 mn per are. That sample covers a broader area.
Bektu gives Rp 100–250 mn for Tegallalang and Kedewatan. Its Payangan range is Rp 50–150 mn.
Bektu's lower Payangan boundary is one-fifth of Brighton's. Its sample likely contains more agricultural and remote plots.
Each source describes asking prices, not transactions. The table keeps the ranges separate because they measure different selections.

What does one 84.5-are Payangan listing show?
A September Brighton listing offers an 84.5-are plot at Rp 200 mn per are.
That price sits between Bektu's lower range and Brighton's range. One listing still cannot establish a Payangan average.
Access, terrain, and permitted use may differ on a large plot. Those details matter more than a price that fits a range.
A budget needs exact coordinates and sale terms. Without them, you may be comparing very different plots.

Does the catalog separate northern Ubud?
Airtable Units labels the whole location Ubud without village divisions. Separate medians for Tegallalang and Payangan cannot be calculated.
Across Ubud, the median completed villa price is Rp 5.21 bn, based on 78 listings. See Ubud land prices for that figure and Ubud property prices for new builds. Both guides provide detailed tables.
Ubud's share of new projects appears in the new-project geography research. It measures supply, not demand.

What needs checking before buying near rice fields?
Price tells you nothing about permitted land use. RDTR zoning, the certificate, legal access, and water come before any deposit.
The status of neighboring fields affects your future view. The rice-field view guide explains LP2B, LBS, and neighboring zones.
A remote plot needs usable road access; a map alone is insufficient. Review the road and documents together before payment.

How can a foreign buyer purchase in northern Ubud?
You can use leasehold or freehold through your own PT PMA company (HGB title, 30+20+30 years). Hak Milik is reserved for Indonesian citizens.
Pay a deposit only after checking RDTR zoning, the certificate, legal access, and water. An independent PPAT notary and lawyer should review the transaction.
The due diligence checklist gives the document sequence. The villa catalog shows completed options.

What this means for buyers
- Brighton starts northern land at Rp 250 mn per are; Bektu starts at Rp 50 mn.
- The ranges cannot be averaged because the samples and geographic groups differ.
- The 84.5-are listing at Rp 200 mn per are is not an average.
- The catalog has no separate Tegallalang or Payangan statistics.
- Roads, RDTR, and neighboring fields need checking before a deposit.
FAQ
How do I turn a price per are into a specific plot budget?
Multiply the rate by the plot area in ares. Confirm that area against the certificate and actual boundaries first.
Can the three agency ranges be averaged?
That would hide different villages and samples. Separate ranges show where the discrepancy comes from.
Why is the Brighton listing below its own lower range?
The overview and listing come from different months. One plot does not reset the whole sample range.
Can I assess a plot using only terrace photographs?
No. Photos do not establish access or boundaries. Inspect both on site, then have independent specialists review the documents.
How do I confirm that a price refers to the right plot?
You need the coordinates and full price for that exact lot. Compare them with the certificate before calculating your budget.
What comes first when comparing two lower-priced plots?
Start with zoning, access, water, and documents. Only then does price per are become a useful comparison.
How we know this
Land figures are asking prices from Brighton, Indo-Terra, and Bektu, not completed sales. The ranges are not averaged. The explanation for Bektu is stated as likely. One Brighton listing is not treated as an average. Catalog source: Airtable Units, snapshot of 24 October 2026 plus one record dated 28 October 2026. Sold properties and Lombok, Sumba, and Sumbawa are excluded. Ubud has no northern village split, so no new medians are calculated. Medians require at least 10 observations. Rupiah values use Rise Real Bali's fixed conversion rate. One are equals 100 m². All prices are indicative, not an offer. Data in one table: /assets/reports/sever-ubuda-tegallalang-payangan.csv
