Black Hill market report TN6 3, Crowborough

The TN6 3 (Black Hill) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Everything below comes from 3,493 sales recorded by HM Land Registry in TN6 3 (Crowborough) since 1995, real completion prices from real purchases, alongside the ONS's current rent figures. No valuations, no estimates, no asking prices.

Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.

In short: the 2026 median for TN6 3 (Crowborough) is £452,500, from 43 registered sales, down 5% on five years earlier; the mean is £534,200, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,570 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 3,493 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.

A postcode sector like TN6 3 is a single group of streets within TN6 (Crowborough), 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 TN6 3

In the TN6 3 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £452,500, from 43 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £534,200, sitting a long way above it, which tells you a few very expensive sales are pulling the average up.

What a square metre costs in TN6 3

Measured by floor area, the last five years of TN6 3 sales average about £4,570 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

Set against the £285,000 England and Wales median, TN6 3 sits 59% above the national market.

In cash terms the typical TN6 3 home went from £85,000 in 1995 to £452,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 145%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 1998 (+33.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−18.9%). 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

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.

Sales activity in TN6 3

TN6 3 recorded 43 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 99 sales a year recently, against 123 a year before 2008. 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.

The rental side of TN6 3

TN6 3 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.

£1,266 a month is £15,192 a year, which against the £452,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.4%. 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.

How TN6 3 trades

This is a thin market: 43 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.

TN6 3 (Black Hill): the questions that come up

Where do TN6 3 prices go next?

The record answers a different question than "what happens next": the median is down 5% over five years in cash but down 25% after inflation. Put the volume chart beside the price chart before drawing conclusions, and allow for the register's lag behind actual completions.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
