How Cecil Road, Lancing prices moved

The chart tracks the median Cecil Road, Lancing house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2025. 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 Cecil Road, Lancing is £390,000 in 2022; the lowest is £33,750 in 1995. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £33,750 to £325,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £74,941, so the real change over the whole record is +343.1% — about +5.09% 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: +36.6% in cash against -1.0% 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.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Cecil Road, Lancing 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 Cecil Road, Lancing

71 of the sales on record are leasehold and 107 freehold — 39.9% 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 £99,500 and the median freehold sale £194,000 — a gap of +95.0%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 4 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 Adur at £1,393 a month as of Jun 2026 — £988 for a one-bedroom home and £1,587 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £146,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.41% 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 BN15, 158 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 44 violent, 2 burglary, 5 vehicle-related and 47 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.

Against the 64,544 residents the 2021 census counted in Adur, that is 2.45 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 Cecil Road, Lancing compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Cecil Road, Lancing sits below that national figure — -7.0%.

Within Lancing the street ranks 237 of 294 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £171,000 (-14.3%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,536 per square metre, across 23 of the 178 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 £17,500 to £490,000. 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.

Cecil Road, Lancing sits in Adur, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Adur at 9.2 times median local earnings of £41,005 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.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Cecil Road, Lancing?

How many homes have sold in Cecil Road, Lancing?

When were Cecil Road, Lancing house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £390,000, 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 Cecil Road, Lancing?

£2,536 per square metre, from the 23 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

The latest sale shown here completed on 20 Feb 2026. 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.
