New figures reveal the most and least expensive neighbourhoods to buy in Eastbourne.

The UK property market has had a turbulent few years – with a boom in the immediate aftermath of the pandemic, followed by a slowdown amid rising interest rates and inflation.

New figures from the Office for National Statistics show where properties are likely to set you back the most in Eastbourne, and where you could snap up a bargain.

The Old Town neighbourhood was Eastbourne's priciest, with a median value of £415,000 among the 129 sales in the area last calendar year.

The next most expensive was the Ratton area, where a house could set you back £380,000, and Sovereign, which had a median price of £325,000 in 2022.

Meanwhile, the Upperton neighbourhood saw the lowest house prices, with buyers paying an average of £213,500 across 272 sales last year.
