Medians over the June 2026 extract. Price per square metre is what stops a big three-bedroom home and a small one reading as the same comparable.
The map
Every sale drawn on the freehold parcel it happened on, shaded by £/m².
The interactive sold-price and £/m² map for Hove is in build. Everything it will show for this area is on this page already, in tables: the medians, the price by property type, the floor areas and the individual sales.
Price by property type
Medians over the three years to June 2026. Types with fewer than five sales are left out; £/m² needs at least 12 sales matched to an EPC floor area before we quote it.
| Type | Sales, 3y | Median, 3y | Median, 12m | Typical size | £/m² |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 337 | £1,032,500 | £955,000 | 154 m² | £6,483/m² |
| Semi-detached | 596 | £665,000 | £665,000 | 117 m² | £5,840/m² |
| Terraced | 541 | £625,000 | £630,000 | 102 m² | £6,045/m² |
| Flat or maisonette | 2,152 | £332,250 | £320,000 | 64 m² | £5,405/m² |
Median by year
Calendar-year median sale price in Hove. Years with fewer than twelve sales are omitted. Bars start at zero, so the percentages above them — measured against 2023 — are the quickest way to read the movement.
Percentages are against the 2023 median of £445,000.
The current year is still filling in. Registration follows completion by months, so its bar will keep rising after this build — read it as a partial count, not a fall.
This extract covers 3 Jan 2023 to 29 Jun 2026. A longer Price Paid history — enough for a ten-year trend, and for what a house sold for a decade ago — is a later ingest, not a gap in what is published here.
What your budget buys in Hove
Sales between 20% below and 10% above a budget, over the three years to June 2026. The headline is floor area, because the price is the part you already fixed — what changes between towns is the space it buys. Sold prices as recorded, never indexed or adjusted.
793 homes in Hove sold between £400,000 and £550,000 in the last three years. The median one measured 82 m² at £5,749/m².
Type mix: Flat or maisonette 60% · Semi-detached 19% · Terraced 17% · Detached 5%.
Matching sales only. Habitable rooms come from the Energy Performance Certificate and are not bedroom counts — neither register records those.
Latest recorded sales
The twenty most recent sales in Hove as registered by HM Land Registry. Floor area comes from the property's Energy Performance Certificate where the address could be matched. Addresses with a matched certificate link to that property's sale history.
A sale appears here once the buyer's title is registered with HM Land Registry, which routinely takes months. The most recent weeks are always thinner than they will end up.

Busiest streets in Hove
The 30 streets with the most recorded sales in the three years to June 2026, and what those sales worked out at. £/m² needs 12 sales matched to a floor area before it is quoted, so most streets show a dash. Street-level lookup for every address is a later build.

Hove house prices: the questions
What is the average house price in Hove?
The median sale price in Hove was £450,000 over the 12 months to June 2026, across 936 recorded sales — half sold for less, half for more. Over the full three years the median is £438,500 from 3,626 sales, ranging from £72,500 to £3,650,000. These are HM Land Registry sold prices, not asking prices or estimates.
How much is a square metre in Hove?
Sold homes in Hove work out at a median of £5,714/m², with the middle half between £4,911 and £6,554 per square metre. The figure comes from 3,313 sales over three years whose address matched an Energy Performance Certificate carrying a total floor area; the median home in that set measures 81 m².
Are house prices in Hove going up or down?
The 12-month median to June 2026 is £450,000, +3.4% against the £435,000 of the twelve months before. Calendar-year medians: 2023 £445,000, 2024 £430,000, 2025 £445,000, 2026 £429,000. Note that 2026 is a part year — the Land Registry publishes monthly and the extract ends 29 Jun 2026 — and that a median tracks what sold, so a change in the mix of homes coming to market moves it as much as prices do.
Which type of home is cheapest in Hove?
Of the types with at least 12 sales to compare, flat or maisonette homes are the cheapest — median £332,250 across 2,152 sales in three years (£5,405/m²). Detached homes sit at the top on £1,032,500 from 337 sales (£6,483/m²). Per square metre the order often differs from the headline price, because the cheaper types are also the smaller ones.
How much does a flat cost in Hove?
The median flat in Hove sold for £332,250 over three years, from 2,152 sales, or £320,000 over the last twelve months from 525 sales. The typical one measures 64 m², which is £5,405/m².
What postcode is Hove?
Hove sits entirely within the BN3 postcode district — all 3,626 recorded sales over three years carry a BN3 postcode, at a median of £438,500 and £5,714/m². Searching BN3 house prices and Hove house prices returns the same set of sales, so this page covers both.
How many homes sell in Hove each year?
2023: 1,203, 2024: 1,389, 2025: 1,267. The current year is still filling in — HM Land Registry publishes monthly and records can arrive months after completion, so the most recent months always look thinner than they will end up.
