Hatton Garden market report EC1N, London
The standing EC1N (Hatton Garden) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 958 sales registered with HM Land Registry in EC1N (London) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Covers registered sales to July 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: the typical home in EC1N (London) sold for £615,000 in 2026, the median of 10 registered sales, up 11% on five years earlier. The mean was £614,400, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £9,730 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 958 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.
The postcode district EC1N covering Hatton Garden sits in London. A district is the workhorse unit for reading a market: local enough to be meaningful, busy enough that the medians rest on a steady flow of sales.

What EC1N homes really sell for
10 sales were registered in EC1N in 2026, and the middle one of them, the median, went for £615,000. The mean works out at £614,400, almost on top of it, so sales bunch tightly around the typical price.
EC1N prices by floor area
Measured by floor area, the last five years of EC1N sales average about £9,730 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, EC1N runs 116% above it.

In cash terms the typical EC1N home went from £38,000 in 1995 to £615,000 in 2026, roughly 16 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 644%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2018. The market now sits about 53% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the EC1N median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 1996 (+196.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2021 (−40.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What EC1N has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.4% | −4.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.2% | −2.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −1.5% | −4.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 19 sales completed in EC1N. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 43 sales a year before the financial crisis and 16 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The rental side of EC1N
The local authority for EC1N is Camden, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £2,759 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £2,008 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £3,890, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Camden
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £615,000 median sold price, £2,759 a month is £33,108 a year, a gross yield of 5.4%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.
How EC1N trades
This is a thin market: 19 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

What another bedroom costs in EC
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the EC area. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat | £560,050 | £825,000 (+47%) | £1,310,000 (+59%) | £1,882,500 (+44%) | — |
Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
