In cash terms the typical BN3 6 home went from £90,000 in 1995 to £660,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 237%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 37% 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 BN3 6 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 2001 (+31.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−22.4%). 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) | −22.4% | −24.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.8% | −6.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.4% | −1.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +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.
Sales activity in BN3 6
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.
BN3 6 recorded 59 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 288 sales a year before the financial crisis and 154 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 BN3 6 market
Only 59 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BN3 6 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 BN3 district median, BN3 6 sits 51% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around BN3 6
BN3 6 falls under Brighton and Hove, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,816 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,193 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,495 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Brighton and Hove
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,816 a month is £21,792 a year, which against the £660,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.3%. 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 another bedroom costs in BN
What homes of each size actually sold for across the BN area, from the Land Registry record. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £390,000 | £519,972 (+33%) | £810,000 (+56%) | £1,170,000 (+44%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
