In cash terms the typical BN10 home went from £56,000 in 1995 to £345,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 183%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 19% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BN10 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2000 (+22.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−12.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 35% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £370,000 against £217,500 for a flat, 1.7 times the price.

Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 270 sales completed in BN10. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 489 sales a year before the financial crisis and 293 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around BN10
BN10 falls under Lewes, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,323 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £917 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,158, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Lewes
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £345,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,323 a month (£15,876 a year) works out at a 4.6% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

The price of an extra bedroom in BN
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the BN area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £390,000 | £519,972 (+33%) | £810,000 (+56%) | £1,170,000 (+44%) |
