In cash terms the typical TN39 3 home went from £65,000 in 1995 to £383,800 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 172%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 6% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

Year-on-year change in the TN39 3 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 (+40.0% on the year before); the weakest, 1997 (−11.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

Sales activity in TN39 3

The year-by-year sales count

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, 88 sales completed in TN39 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 392 sales a year before the financial crisis and 187 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 tenants pay around TN39 3

For renting purposes TN39 3 sits in Rother. The ONS average private rent there is £1,165 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £803 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,915, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Against the £383,800 median purchase price, a rent of £1,165 a month (£13,980 a year) works out at a 3.6% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.

Moving up a bedroom in TN: the cost

What homes of each size actually sold for across the TN 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.

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.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the TN area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
