In cash terms the typical BN23 7 home went from £51,000 in 1995 to £280,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 153%, 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 19% 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 BN23 7 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 (+25.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.9%). 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) | +1.8% | −0.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.5% | −3.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.6% | −0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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
How many homes change hands
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 47 sales completed in BN23 7. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 183 sales a year before the financial crisis and 111 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.
What homes rent for around BN23 7
The local authority for BN23 7 is Eastbourne, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,162 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £814 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,787 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
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 £280,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.0%. 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.
What kind of market BN23 7 is
Only 47 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BN23 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

The price of an extra bedroom in BN
What homes of each size actually sold for across the BN area, from the Land Registry record. 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%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
