Rye house prices
179 homes changed hands in Rye in the 12 months to June 2026, at a median of £370,000. "Rye" here is the Royal Mail post town, which reaches well beyond the town itself — Northiam, Camber, Broad Oak and Peasmarsh are counted in these figures, among others. That is down 12.9% on the £425,000 median of the twelve months before. Floor space runs at about £4,203/m², with the middle half of sales between £3,582 and £4,959 per square metre — measured on 565 sales matched to an EPC floor area. The detached house is the commonest sale — 238 of the last 632 (38%), median £556,250. Every sale here falls in one postcode district, TN31.
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 interactive sold-price and £/m² map for Rye 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.

Median by year
Calendar-year median sale price in Rye. 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 £400,500.
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 Rye
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.
160 homes in Rye sold between £400,000 and £550,000 in the last three years. The median one measured 101 m² at £4,516/m².
Type mix: Detached 47% · Semi-detached 32% · Terraced 19% · Flat or maisonette 2%.
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 Rye 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.

Rye house prices: the questions
What is the average house price in Rye?
The median sale price in Rye was £370,000 over the 12 months to June 2026, across 179 recorded sales — half sold for less, half for more. Over the full three years the median is £405,000 from 632 sales, ranging from £60,000 to £3,737,000. These are HM Land Registry sold prices, not asking prices or estimates.
How much is a square metre in Rye?
Sold homes in Rye work out at a median of £4,203/m², with the middle half between £3,582 and £4,959 per square metre. The figure comes from 565 sales over three years whose address matched an Energy Performance Certificate carrying a total floor area; the median home in that set measures 90 m².
What does the Rye post town cover?
"Rye" here is the Royal Mail post town, which reaches well beyond the town itself — Northiam, Camber, Broad Oak and Peasmarsh are counted in these figures, among others. A post town is a Royal Mail sorting geography, not a council or parish boundary, and HM Land Registry records sold prices against it — so a median labelled Rye covers the villages posted through Rye as well as the town itself. The largest of them here are Northiam (125 sales, median £420,000), Camber (75 sales, median £315,000), Broad Oak (37 sales, median £410,000), Peasmarsh (34 sales, median £417,500) and Beckley (29 sales, median £532,000).
Are house prices in Rye going up or down?
The 12-month median to June 2026 is £370,000, −12.9% against the £425,000 of the twelve months before. Calendar-year medians: 2023 £400,500, 2024 £430,000, 2025 £399,975, 2026 £367,725. 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 Rye?
Of the types with at least 12 sales to compare, flat or maisonette homes are the cheapest — median £210,000 across 59 sales in three years (£3,651/m²). Detached homes sit at the top on £556,250 from 238 sales (£4,516/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 detached house cost in Rye?
The median detached house in Rye sold for £556,250 over three years, from 238 sales, or £525,000 over the last twelve months from 65 sales. The typical one measures 120 m², which is £4,516/m².
What postcode is Rye?
Rye sits entirely within the TN31 postcode district — all 632 recorded sales over three years carry a TN31 postcode, at a median of £405,000 and £4,203/m². Searching TN31 house prices and Rye house prices returns the same set of sales, so this page covers both.
How many homes sell in Rye each year?
2023: 198, 2024: 233, 2025: 222. 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.
