How Castle Rise, Uckfield prices moved

The chart tracks the median Castle Rise, Uckfield house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2003. 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 Castle Rise, Uckfield is £193,750 in 2003; the lowest is £88,000 in 2000. Across the full 6-year record the cash median has moved from £122,000 to £193,750.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £252,971, so the real change over the whole record is +44.8% — about +7.68% 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: +58.8% in cash against +44.8% 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.

Homes that sold twice

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 Castle Rise, Uckfield values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Ownership and new build in Castle Rise, Uckfield

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 76 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 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.

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 £181,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.77% 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 TN22, 52 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 26 violent, 0 burglary, 1 vehicle-related and 10 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.2 times quieter.

Against the 99,905 residents the 2021 census counted in Lewes, that is 0.52 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.

Section 08

The 2021 census counted 99,905 residents in Lewes across 43,688 households. 72.1% of those households own their home and 27.8% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

Within Uckfield the street ranks 293 of 372 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £242,000 (-25.2%).

Castle Rise, Uckfield 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 Castle Rise, Uckfield?

How many homes have sold in Castle Rise, Uckfield?

76 sales are on record for Castle Rise, Uckfield, the most recent completing on 14 Jul 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +58.8% between 1998 and 2003. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +44.8%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Castle Rise, Uckfield house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £193,750, set in 2003. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

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 14 Jul 2025. 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.
