Winchelsea house prices
21 homes changed hands in Winchelsea in the 12 months to June 2026, at a median of £425,000. "Winchelsea" here is the Royal Mail post town, which reaches well beyond the town itself — Winchelsea Beach and Icklesham are counted in these figures. That is level with the £422,500 median of the twelve months before. Floor space runs at about £4,321/m², with the middle half of sales between £3,595 and £5,354 per square metre — measured on 91 sales matched to an EPC floor area. The detached house is the commonest sale — 56 of the last 103 (54%), median £497,500. Every sale here falls in one postcode district, TN36.
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 Winchelsea 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 Winchelsea. 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 £470,000. 2025 is drawn pale: under 30 sales, the year-to-year step says more about which homes came to market than about prices.
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.

Latest recorded sales
The twenty most recent sales in Winchelsea 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.

† The Energy Performance Certificate matched to this sale reports a floor area that is not credible for that type of home in that postcode — most often a certificate covering a whole building rather than the flat inside it. The sale happened and the price is the price; we withhold the £/m² rather than divide by a number we do not believe, here and in every median on this page.

Winchelsea house prices: the questions
What is the average house price in Winchelsea?
The median sale price in Winchelsea was £425,000 over the 12 months to June 2026, across 21 recorded sales — half sold for less, half for more. Over the full three years the median is £440,000 from 103 sales, ranging from £190,000 to £2,457,500. These are HM Land Registry sold prices, not asking prices or estimates.
How much is a square metre in Winchelsea?
Sold homes in Winchelsea work out at a median of £4,321/m², with the middle half between £3,595 and £5,354 per square metre. The figure comes from 91 sales over three years whose address matched an Energy Performance Certificate carrying a total floor area; the median home in that set measures 98 m².
What does the Winchelsea post town cover?
"Winchelsea" here is the Royal Mail post town, which reaches well beyond the town itself — Winchelsea Beach and Icklesham are counted in these figures. 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 Winchelsea covers the villages posted through Winchelsea as well as the town itself. The largest of them here are Winchelsea Beach (42 sales, median £362,500) and Icklesham (27 sales, median £367,500).
Are house prices in Winchelsea going up or down?
The 12-month median to June 2026 is £425,000, level with the £422,500 of the twelve months before. Read that percentage carefully: it rests on 21 sales against 42, and at those counts a handful of larger or smaller homes moves the median more than the market does. Calendar-year medians: 2023 £470,000, 2024 £450,000, 2025 £422,500. 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 Winchelsea?
Of the types with at least 12 sales to compare, semi-detached homes are the cheapest — median £355,000 across 21 sales in three years (£4,154/m²). Detached homes sit at the top on £497,500 from 56 sales (£4,736/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 Winchelsea?
The median detached house in Winchelsea sold for £497,500 over three years, from 56 sales, or £510,000 over the last twelve months from 15 sales. The typical one measures 115 m², which is £4,736/m².
What postcode is Winchelsea?
Winchelsea sits entirely within the TN36 postcode district — all 103 recorded sales over three years carry a TN36 postcode, at a median of £440,000 and £4,321/m². Searching TN36 house prices and Winchelsea house prices returns the same set of sales, so this page covers both.
How many homes sell in Winchelsea each year?
2023: 35, 2024: 44, 2025: 28. 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.
