In cash terms the typical BN22 home went from £46,500 in 1995 to £285,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 182%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 22% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the BN22 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 (+25.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−10.4%). 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 terraced homes dominate the record here, 46% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £385,000 against £180,000 for a flat, 2.1 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.
The turnover behind the prices
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 361 BN22 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 853 sales a year before the financial crisis and 424 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.
Reading the BN22 market
Among the 30 measurable districts of its area, BN22 ranks 28 by median price: towards the affordable end.

Average monthly rent by size, Eastbourne
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,162 a month is £13,944 a year, which against the £285,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.9%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

Moving up a bedroom in BN: the cost
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%) |

| Flat | £207,000 | £275,000 (+33%) | £420,000 (+53%) | £645,000 (+54%) | — |
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.
