Enfield market report EN
The EN (Enfield) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 177,014 sales registered with HM Land Registry in the EN postcode area (Enfield) 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 August 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register. Page updated 19 October 2026.
In short: 1,576 registered 2026 sales put the the EN postcode area (Enfield) median at £460,000, up 3% on five years earlier, with a mean of £511,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £5,540 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 177,014 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
The figures for EN centred on Enfield run across 11 districts, the broad sweep by design. For a specific place, drop down to its district report below.

What buyers actually paid in EN
In the EN property market, the 2026 median sale price is £460,000, from 1,576 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £511,000, sitting somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.
EN prices by floor area
A square metre of EN home has cost about £5,540 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.
England and Wales as a whole trade at a £285,000 median, leaving EN 61% above the national figure.
A typical EN home, priced year by year (1995 to 2026)
Year by year: the median as it was recorded, and the same figure brought into today's money with ONS CPIH, which is where "did homes get dearer" actually gets answered. Hover shows each year; the legend isolates a series.

| 1995 | £70,500 | £153,256 | 5,364 |
In cash terms the typical EN home went from £70,500 in 1995 to £460,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 200%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 18% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the EN 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 2000 (+20.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−3.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of flats dominate the record here, 33% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £740,000 against £270,000 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

| Type | Median (2026) | Sales that year | All-time sales |

| Semi-detached | £572,500 | 435 | 41,589 |

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −2.1% | −4.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.7% | −4.0% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +1.5% | −2.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.9% | +1.1% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 2,931 sales completed in EN. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 7,904 sales a year before the financial crisis and 3,418 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.
What tenants pay around EN
The local authority for EN is Broxbourne, the local authority covering most of the EN area (parts fall under Enfield and Barnet, where rents differ), and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,665 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,118 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,470 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Broxbourne
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £460,000 median sold price, £1,665 a month is £19,980 a year, a gross yield of 4.3%: 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.

Is EN (Enfield) a good place to buy a house?
Are EN prices heading up or down?
Prediction is not this page's business. Its business is the record, which says: the median is up 3% over five years in cash but down 18% after inflation. Read the volume chart with the price chart before acting on either, remembering that registrations trail the deals themselves by weeks.
What is for sale in EN right now
Everything above is what homes in EN sold for. The live side of the market holds 1,087 homes at the moment, listed by 9 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 3% above the EN median sold price.
Set against 2,931 registered sales in the last twelve months, the 1,087 homes on the market here are roughly 4 months of supply at last year's pace, and more in reality, since only agents who publish to HomesIndex are counted.
8% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.

"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

Listed against sold: the EN mix
Detached homes are 31% of what is listed in EN but 14% of what sold over 2024 and 2025: the market is being offered more of them than it has been taking, which tends to give a buyer of one room to talk.
| Type | Share of homes for sale now | Share of sales, 2024 and 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Detached | 31% | 14% |
| Semi-detached | 21% | 28% |
| Terraced | 25% | 32% |
| Flats | 24% | 27% |
Listings are the homes agents publish to HomesIndex today; sales are HM Land Registry registrations. A listing whose type does not say detached, semi-detached, terraced or flat (a plain "house", a bungalow, a park home) is left out of the listing shares (15 here).
Month by month: when EN sells
Take the 21,111 EN sales dated 2021 to 2025 and sort them by month: March completions lead with 11.9% of the total, April trails with 6.4%. That is a marked seasonal rhythm. A sale completes weeks after it is agreed, so the busy month reflects deals struck earlier in the year; a seller who wants competition should be on the market ahead of it.
Sales by month, 2021 to 2025
| Month | Sales | Share |
|---|---|---|
| January | 1,488 | 7.0% |
| February | 1,669 | 7.9% |
| March | 2,511 | 11.9% |
| April | 1,354 | 6.4% |

What another bedroom costs in EN
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the EN area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £492,497 | £557,500 (+13%) | £635,000 (+14%) | £770,000 (+21%) | £1,050,000 (+36%) |
| Semi-detached | £390,000 | £450,000 (+15%) | £525,000 (+17%) | £635,000 (+21%) | £735,000 (+16%) |
| Terraced | £324,000 | £390,000 (+20%) | £445,000 (+14%) | £540,000 (+21%) | £640,000 (+19%) |
| Flat | £227,500 | £300,000 (+32%) | £400,000 (+33%) | £465,000 (+16%) | £690,000 (+48%) |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
