In cash terms the typical BN14 home went from £58,000 in 1995 to £398,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 216%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 18% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the BN14 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 2002 (+27.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−7.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.5% | −2.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.1% | −0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.7% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 29% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £590,000 against £183,800 for a flat, 3.2 times the price.

How many homes change hands in BN14
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 324 sales completed in BN14. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 876 sales a year before the financial crisis and 393 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 rental side of BN14
The local authority for BN14 is Worthing, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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 £398,000 median sold price, £1,311 a month is £15,732 a year, a gross yield of 4.0%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in BN: the cost
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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £390,000 | £519,972 (+33%) | £810,000 (+56%) | £1,170,000 (+44%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
