How Downside, Shoreham-by-sea prices moved
The chart tracks the median Downside, Shoreham-by-sea house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2024. 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 | 3 | £82,500 | £183,189 |
| 2000s | 6 | £179,250 | £326,541 |
| 2010s | 5 | £352,500 | £497,025 |
| 2020s | 4 | £460,000 | £470,000 |
The highest yearly median on record for Downside, Shoreham-by-sea is £580,000 in 2022; the lowest is £82,159 in 1995. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £82,159 to £477,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £182,431, so the real change over the whole record is +175.4% — about +3.56% 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: +92.5% in cash against +38.9% 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. Downside, Shoreham-by-sea 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 97 | 56.1% | £265,000 | £59,000 – £690,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Downside, Shoreham-by-sea
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 173 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 | 173 | 100.0% | £245,000 |
A further 1 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.
Section 09

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,024 per square metre, across 41 of the 173 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Downside, Shoreham-by-sea?
The median price paid in Downside, Shoreham-by-sea across every sale on the register is £245,000. 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.

173 sales are on record for Downside, Shoreham-by-sea, the most recent completing on 27 Feb 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Downside, Shoreham-by-sea house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £580,000, 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 Downside, Shoreham-by-sea?
£3,024 per square metre, from the 41 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.
