Section 01
How Gorse Hill, Heathfield prices moved
The chart tracks the median Gorse Hill, Heathfield house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2002 to 2022. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 4 | £180,000 | £327,907 |
| 2020s | 1 | £482,500 | £492,989 |
The highest yearly median on record for Gorse Hill, Heathfield is £482,500 in 2022; the lowest is £139,950 in 2002. Across the full 21-year record the cash median has moved from £139,950 to £482,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £269,945, so the real change over the whole record is +107.1% — about +3.71% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +113.0% in cash against +42.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

The most recent sales

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Gorse Hill, Heathfield
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 96 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 96 | 100.0% | £246,000 |
A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09
How Gorse Hill, Heathfield compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Gorse Hill, Heathfield sits above that national figure — +56.2%.
Within Heathfield the street ranks 126 of 242 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £220,000 (+11.8%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Gorse Hill, Heathfield?
The median price paid in Gorse Hill, Heathfield across every sale on the register is £246,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Gorse Hill, Heathfield?
96 sales are on record for Gorse Hill, Heathfield, the most recent completing on 28 Nov 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Gorse Hill, Heathfield house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +113.0% between 2007 and 2022. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +42.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Gorse Hill, Heathfield house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £482,500, set in 2022. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Gorse Hill, Heathfield?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 28 Nov 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
