In cash terms the typical KT9 1 home went from £74,500 in 1995 to £465,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 187%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the KT9 1 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 1998 (+21.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−5.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What KT9 1 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −4.2% | −6.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.8% | +1.0% |
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.
How many homes change hands in KT9 1
The year-by-year sales count
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 48 KT9 1 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 206 sales a year before the financial crisis and 98 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
The shape of the KT9 1 market
This is a thin market: 48 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 rental side of KT9 1
The local authority for KT9 1 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 £465,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,803 a month (£21,636 a year) works out at a 4.7% 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.

What another bedroom costs in KT
What homes of each size actually sold for across the KT area, 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.
