| 1996 | £45,000 | £94,903 | 189 |
| 1995 | £44,800 | £97,388 | 135 |
In cash terms the typical BN9 9 home went from £44,800 in 1995 to £300,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 208%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BN9 9 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 (+30.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−10.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +4.3% | +1.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.9% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.3% | +0.5% |
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
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.
The register shows 53 BN9 9 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 274 sales a year before the financial crisis and 114 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
Rents around BN9 9
For renting purposes BN9 9 sits in Lewes. The ONS average private rent there is £1,323 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £917 a month here against £2,158 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Lewes
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £300,000 median sold price, £1,323 a month is £15,876 a year, a gross yield of 5.3%: 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.
The shape of the BN9 9 market
This is a thin market: 53 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict.

What another bedroom costs in BN
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.
