How Brookside Avenue, Polegate prices moved

The chart tracks the median Brookside Avenue, Polegate house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 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 Brookside Avenue, Polegate is £252,500 in 2020; the lowest is £29,450 in 1998. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £49,750 to £125,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £107,919, so the real change over the whole record is +18.3% — about +0.58% 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 -56.0% 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.

Ownership and new build in Brookside Avenue, Polegate

168 of the sales on record are leasehold and 124 freehold — 57.5% 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 £95,000 and the median freehold sale £182,000 — a gap of +91.6%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -71.1%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

Section 09

How Brookside Avenue, Polegate compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Brookside Avenue, Polegate sits below that national figure — -30.8%.

Within Polegate the street ranks 167 of 174 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £183,500 (-40.6%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,967 per square metre, across 96 of the 292 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
