Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

In short: the 2026 median for TN21 8 (Heathfield) is £345,000, from 39 registered sales, up 5% on five years earlier; the mean is £395,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,010 per square metre over the last five years.

A postcode sector like TN21 8 is a single group of streets within TN21 (Heathfield), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

The going rate for a home in TN21 8

The 2026 median for TN21 8 is £345,000, taken from 39 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £395,000, a little above it, the familiar pattern where pricier homes stretch the average.

TN21 8 prices by floor area

The last five years of sales put TN21 8 at roughly £4,010 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.

The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts TN21 8 21% above the country at large.

In cash terms the typical TN21 8 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £345,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 165%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 17% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

The strongest year on record here is 2004 (+22.0% 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.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years

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 TN21 8

Over the last twelve months of data, 39 sales completed in TN21 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 245 sales a year before the financial crisis and 110 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 TN21 8

For renting purposes TN21 8 sits in Wealden. The ONS average private rent there is £1,266 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £899 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,096, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

£1,266 a month is £15,192 a year, which against the £345,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.4%. 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.

Reading the TN21 8 market

Only 39 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TN21 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within TN21, this sector trades 10% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
