How Meadowcroft Close, Horley prices moved

The chart tracks the median Meadowcroft Close, Horley house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2017. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Meadowcroft Close, Horley is £248,000 in 2017; the lowest is £65,000 in 1999. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £66,250 to £248,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £137,371, so the real change over the whole record is +145.7% — about +4.85% 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: +39.3% in cash against +9.1% 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.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Meadowcroft Close, Horley is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Meadowcroft Close, Horley

126 of the sales on record are leasehold and 1 freehold — 99.2% 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.

The median leasehold sale is £152,000 and the median freehold sale £130,000 — a gap of -14.5%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 5 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Crawley at £1,484 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,064 for a one-bedroom home and £1,637 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £151,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.79% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of RH6, 173 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 67 violent, 1 burglary, 10 vehicle-related and 30 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.

Against the 118,493 residents the 2021 census counted in Crawley, that is 1.46 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

How Meadowcroft Close, Horley compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Meadowcroft Close, Horley sits below that national figure — -4.1%.

Within Horley the street ranks 403 of 443 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £244,750 (-38.3%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,211 per square metre, across 29 of the 127 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £32,272 to £302,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Meadowcroft Close, Horley sits in Crawley, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Crawley at 8.5 times median local earnings of £41,977 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

The latest sale shown here completed on 10 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.
