In cash terms the typical BN16 3 home went from £54,000 in 1995 to £308,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 162%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 22% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BN16 3 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 (+33.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−15.2%). 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) | +3.5% | +1.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.5% | −0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 55 BN16 3 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 260 sales a year before the financial crisis and 130 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
How BN16 3 trades
Only 55 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BN16 3 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the BN16 district median, BN16 3 sits 17% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
The rental side of BN16 3
The local authority for BN16 3 is Arun, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,224 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £845 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,974 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Arun
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £308,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,224 a month (£14,688 a year) works out at a 4.8% 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.

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. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
