In cash terms the typical TN5 home went from £100,000 in 1995 to £488,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 125%: 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 21% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the TN5 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 (+36.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−8.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What TN5 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.4% | +2.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.1% | −4.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 40% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £847,500 against £362,500 for a flat, 2.3 times the price.

Sales activity in TN5
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.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
The register shows 84 TN5 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 173 sales a year before the financial crisis and 109 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.
What homes rent for around TN5
TN5 falls under Wealden, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,266 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
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 £488,800 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.1%. 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.
How TN5 trades
Only 84 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TN5 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. TN5 sits 11 of 40 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.

What another bedroom costs in TN
What homes of each size actually sold for across the TN area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £375,000 | £520,000 (+39%) | £789,950 (+52%) | £1,140,000 (+44%) |
| Semi-detached | £280,000 | £340,000 (+21%) | £415,000 (+22%) | £580,000 (+40%) | £750,000 (+29%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
