How Orchard Avenue, Lancing prices moved

The chart tracks the median Orchard Avenue, Lancing house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2020. 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 Orchard Avenue, Lancing is £310,000 in 2020; the lowest is £51,000 in 1995. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £51,000 to £310,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £113,244, so the real change over the whole record is +254.4% — about +5.19% 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: +73.7% in cash against +26.3% 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.

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Orchard Avenue, Lancing values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Ownership and new build in Orchard Avenue, Lancing

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 116 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.

A further 2 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 £172,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.72% 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 Orchard Avenue, Lancing compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Orchard Avenue, Lancing sits above that national figure — +9.2%.

Within Lancing the street ranks 171 of 294 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £171,000 (+0.6%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,500 per square metre, across 15 of the 116 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 £1,400 to £437,500. 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.

Orchard Avenue, 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 Orchard Avenue, Lancing?

The median price paid in Orchard Avenue, Lancing across every sale on the register is £172,000. 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 Orchard Avenue, Lancing?

116 sales are on record for Orchard Avenue, Lancing, the most recent completing on 6 Jan 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Orchard Avenue, Lancing house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +73.7% between 2006 and 2020. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +26.3%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Orchard Avenue, Lancing house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £310,000, set in 2020. 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 Orchard Avenue, Lancing?

£2,500 per square metre, from the 15 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.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 6 Jan 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.
