TN3 9 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside TN3 (Tunbridge Wells). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical TN3 9 home went from £100,000 in 1995 to £544,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 150%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 36% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the TN3 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 (+47.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−29.3%). 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) | −6.0% | −8.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −2.5% | −7.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +0.5% | −2.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 21 sales completed in TN3 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 67 sales a year before the financial crisis and 50 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.
The rental side of TN3 9
For renting purposes TN3 9 sits in Wealden. The ONS average private rent there is £1,266 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £899 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,096 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Wealden
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,266 a month is £15,192 a year, which against the £544,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 2.8%. 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.
The shape of the TN3 9 market
This is a thin market: 21 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. Within TN3, this sector trades 21% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

The price of an extra bedroom in TN
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the TN 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.
