Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on BH25: steady sales, so price from the evidence

BH25 sees about 30 sales a month, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.

If you are selling, a spread from £216,300 to £665,500 makes £400,000 a poor guide to any one home, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

If you are buying, BH25 sits well above the UK average for typical prices, so compare any asking price with sold homes of the same type before you commit.

Our checklist before an offer: what has been applied for nearby (843 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,420 a year), plus the title, which your conveyancer should review.

Where the numbers are this loose, the free BH25 OfferCheck gives you something firmer to hold: flood, crime, planning and council tax, each with its source.

In plain English

What the New Forest (BH25) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £556,050 against £218,275 for flats: about 2.5 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £216,300 and £665,500, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 30 recorded sales a month.

Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so BH25 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in BH25: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

New Forest's council tax for 2026-27 set against the BH25 median sold price of £400,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The BH25 report: your questions

What is the average house price in BH25?
The typical (median) sold price in BH25 is £400,000, from 250 recorded sales between 16 December 2025 and 24 August 2026. Most sales fell between £216,300 and £665,500. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in BH25?
Typical sold prices by type in BH25: detached homes £556,050 (126 sales), flats £218,275 (44 sales), terraced homes £274,250 (42 sales), semi-detached homes £365,000 (33 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in BH25?
BH25 is billed by New Forest, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,420 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near BH25?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the BH25 district centre, the nearest being New Milton Junior School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the BH25 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is BH25 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 BH25 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 3 to decile 10, with a median of decile 9 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like BH25 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near BH25?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 843 applications within 500 m of the BH25 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in BH25 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 245 distinct addresses in the records we hold for BH25, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does BH25 cover my exact street?
BH25 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
