BN11 1 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside BN11 (Worthing). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical BN11 1 home went from £32,000 in 1995 to £248,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 257%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2010. The market now sits about 24% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BN11 1 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 2010 (+48.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−13.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +21.0% | +18.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.0% | −2.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 31 sales completed in BN11 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 161 sales a year before the financial crisis and 75 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The shape of the BN11 1 market
Only 31 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BN11 1 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Against the BN11 district median, BN11 1 sits 8% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
Rents around BN11 1
BN11 1 falls under Worthing, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,311 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £899 a month here against £1,954 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Worthing
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £248,000 median sold price, £1,311 a month is £15,732 a year, a gross yield of 6.3%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

The price of an extra bedroom in BN
Real sold prices by size across the BN area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £390,000 | £519,972 (+33%) | £810,000 (+56%) | £1,170,000 (+44%) |
| Semi-detached | £305,000 | £345,000 (+13%) | £420,500 (+22%) | £580,000 (+38%) | £935,000 (+61%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
