How Dornden Drive, Tunbridge Wells prices moved
The chart tracks the median Dornden Drive, Tunbridge Wells house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2001 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.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 2 | £289,975 | £528,249 |
| 2010s | 4 | £585,000 | £824,850 |
| 2020s | 3 | £992,500 | £1,014,076 |
The highest yearly median on record for Dornden Drive, Tunbridge Wells is £1,212,500 in 2025; the lowest is £289,975 in 2001. Across the full 25-year record the cash median has moved from £289,975 to £1,212,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £568,658, so the real change over the whole record is +117.9% — about +3.30% 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: +107.3% in cash against +47.6% 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.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Dornden Drive, Tunbridge Wells 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 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Dornden Drive, Tunbridge Wells
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 120 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 | 120 | 100.0% | £575,000 |
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
How Dornden Drive, Tunbridge Wells compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Dornden Drive, Tunbridge Wells sits above that national figure — +265.1%.
Within Tunbridge Wells the street ranks 102 of 898 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £240,000 (+139.6%).

The full range on record runs from £118,000 to £1,585,000. 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.

The latest sale shown here completed on 25 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.
