In cash terms the typical KT6 5 home went from £97,000 in 1995 to £645,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 206%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 21% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the KT6 5 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 (+46.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−13.3%). 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) | −13.3% | −15.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.2% | −2.1% |
| 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.
Sales activity in KT6 5
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
KT6 5 recorded 27 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 199 sales a year before the financial crisis and 87 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 shape of the KT6 5 market
Only 27 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes KT6 5 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. Within KT6, this sector trades 41% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of KT6 5
For renting purposes KT6 5 sits in Elmbridge. The ONS average private rent there is £1,831 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £1,222 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,797 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Elmbridge
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £645,000 median sold price, £1,831 a month is £21,972 a year, a gross yield of 3.4%: 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 much did a house sell for in KT6 5 (Tolworth)?

What another bedroom costs in KT
Real sold prices by size across the KT area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

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.
