In cash terms the typical TN40 1 home went from £41,000 in 1995 to £222,500 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. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. 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 TN40 1 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 2003 (+26.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.7%). 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% | +3.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.4% | −3.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.5% | +0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
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.
How many homes change hands in TN40 1
Sales per year, counted
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.
TN40 1 recorded 58 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 364 sales a year before the financial crisis and 166 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
Reading the TN40 1 market
Only 58 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TN40 1 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the TN40 district median, TN40 1 sits 19% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around TN40 1
For renting purposes TN40 1 sits in Rother. The ONS average private rent there is £1,165 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £803 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,915 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Rother
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £222,500 median sold price, £1,165 a month is £13,980 a year, a gross yield of 6.3%: 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.
