How Lower Station Road, Lewes prices moved
The chart tracks the median Lower Station Road, Lewes house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2012. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 1 | £249,950 | £555,007 |
| 2000s | 1 | £440,000 | £801,550 |
| 2010s | 1 | £750,000 | £1,057,500 |
The highest yearly median on record for Lower Station Road, Lewes is £750,000 in 2012; the lowest is £249,950 in 1998. Across the full 15-year record the cash median has moved from £249,950 to £750,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £518,279, so the real change over the whole record is +116.1% — about +5.66% 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: +200.1% in cash against +116.1% 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.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Lower Station Road, Lewes is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 72 | 92.3% | £565,000 | £180,000 – £2,661,100 |
| Semi-detached | 6 | 7.7% | £320,000 | £150,000 – £1,210,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Lower Station Road, Lewes
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 78 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 | 78 | 100.0% | £547,500 |
A further 3 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.

Living in Lower Station Road, Lewes
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Lewes, 42.2% of 49,257 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.0% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Lewes at £1,323 a month as of Jun 2026 — £917 for a one-bedroom home and £1,495 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £547,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 2.90% 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.
No street-level crime was published for BN8 in Jun 2026. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

Within Lewes the street ranks 59 of 535 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £267,500 (+104.7%).

The full range on record runs from £150,000 to £2,661,100. 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.
Lower Station Road, Lewes sits in Lewes, in the South East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Lewes at 9.7 times median local earnings of £39,798 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Lower Station Road, Lewes?
The median price paid in Lower Station Road, Lewes across every sale on the register is £547,500. 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 Lower Station Road, Lewes?
78 sales are on record for Lower Station Road, Lewes, the most recent completing on 15 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +200.1% between 1998 and 2012. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +116.1%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Lower Station Road, Lewes house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £750,000, set in 2012. 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 Lower Station Road, Lewes?
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 15 May 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.
