Market Overview: BN16
With 314 recorded transactions in twelve months, BN16 is one of the more liquid postcodes in the sample — individual outliers have less pull on the median figure than they would elsewhere. Individual sales ranged from £70k to £2.85m, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — detached houses led with 34% but the mix is diverse, while semi-detached houses accounted for 20% and terraced houses accounted for 25%.
The twelve-month trend is softer than it was: the median in the second half of the window was 3.8% below the first-half median. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
Liquidity in BN16 1AA is healthy: the high sale count makes it easier to benchmark a specific property against genuinely recent comparables rather than extrapolating from older deals. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 3.8%, based on ONS regional rents.
