The raw material for this page is 5,965 HM Land Registry entries for KT5 8 (Surbiton), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS. Valuations, estimates and asking prices appear nowhere in it.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

Behind the figures sit 5,965 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
KT5 8 is one sector of KT5 (Surbiton): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

In cash terms the typical KT5 8 home went from £78,100 in 1995 to £482,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 184%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2017. The market now sits about 38% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the KT5 8 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 1999 (+34.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−19.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −19.9% | −21.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.7% | −5.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.1% | −3.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The register shows 40 KT5 8 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 258 sales a year before the financial crisis and 118 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.
Reading the KT5 8 market
Only 40 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes KT5 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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 tenants pay around KT5 8
The local authority for KT5 8 is Kingston upon Thames, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,803 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,372 a month here against £2,827 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Kingston upon Thames
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £482,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,803 a month (£21,636 a year) works out at a 4.5% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

Moving up a bedroom in KT: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the KT area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
