About £445,000, which is Horsham money for an address that isn't quite Horsham. Terraces come in under that. Detached houses go well past it. Flats are the only cheap way in, and there aren't many of them. Village postcode, town prices.
The Land Registry recorded 81 sales in the year to early May 2026, at a typical price of about £445,000. By type, the spread runs from sensible to ambitious. Terraces were the busiest part of the market, 32 sales at around £377,500. Semis went for about £456,000 across 22 sales, and the 15 detached sales came in at around £712,000, which is where the "village" in the brochure starts earning its keep. Twelve flats sold at about £192,500. Anyone hoping for something between a flat and a terrace will be disappointed, because there isn't much between them.
The price index covering the area rose about 1.3% in the twelve months to May 2026, to an average of around £441,000. That's a small number, and it should be read as one: prices held rather than took off. Flats went the other way, down about 1.7% over the same year. Over five years the index is up about 15%, so owners who bought before the recent run are comfortable. Anyone who bought at the top of it has mostly been standing still since.
Council tax comes on top. The most common band is D, and only about 15% of homes are in the cheapest bands, A and B. A band D bill here is about £2,441 a year, and that's the figure to hold against your current one. Bottom-band houses aren't really part of what's for sale here.
Renting is priced at district level. The typical private rent across the Horsham area is about £1,450 a month as of April 2026, an average from the Office for National Statistics' rent index rather than a figure for Broadbridge Heath itself. By size, that's about £1,006 a month for a one-bed, £1,329 for a two-bed, £1,669 for a three-bed and £2,393 for four bedrooms or more. No reliable figure exists for studios or rooms, so any number you see for one here is guesswork, and letting agents are always happy to supply guesswork.
Local incomes help, up to a point. Modelled household income averaged about £68,500 before tax in the financial year to March 2023. Against a typical sale price of £445,000, that makes the average house within reach for two decent salaries with a deposit behind them. On one salary it's a stretch, and it stays a stretch however long the mortgage adviser keeps the calculator running. Couples on two incomes can buy a terrace or a semi here. Single buyers are mostly looking at the 12 flats.
By size, the typical sale worked out at about £4,600 per square metre, for a home of around 93 square metres. That figure covers the sales that could be matched to an energy certificate's floor area, about 94% of those recorded, so it describes most of the market rather than every house in it. The typical home is a modest family house, not a sprawling one, and the square-metre price is how the house with a dated kitchen gets its fair comparison against the one with the island.
The 2021 Census shows what's being bought and sold. About 40% of homes have three bedrooms, 26% have four or more, 24% have two and 10% have one. It's a three-bedroom market with a generous tail of bigger houses, which suits families and punishes anyone who only wanted one bedroom and no garden to mow.
Middling is the fair word for it: family houses priced like the town next door, with a thin cheap end and nothing much happening to prices. It's not a bargain and not a rip-off, and the trouble is finding anything that isn't a family house.
