In cash terms the typical N12 0 home went from £82,800 in 1995 to £642,500 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 257%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 8% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the N12 0 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 (+42.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−19.1%). 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) | +31.9% | +28.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.0% | −1.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.9% | +0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.8% | +2.0% |
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
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 24 N12 0 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 156 sales a year before the financial crisis and 54 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 kind of market N12 0 is
This is a thin market: 24 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. Against the N12 district median, N12 0 sits 17% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around N12 0
For renting purposes N12 0 sits in Barnet. The ONS average private rent there is £1,934 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £1,487 a month for a typical one-bed to £3,174 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Barnet
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £642,500 median sold price, £1,934 a month is £23,208 a year, a gross yield of 3.6%: 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 N12 0 (North Finchley) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in N12 0 (North Finchley)?
Where do N12 0 prices go next?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 16% over five years in cash but down 8% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.
On the market in N12 today
Turning to what is actually available: 89 homes on the market right now, from 9 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole N12 district, not just N12 0: live asking prices are collected per district.
16% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

Bedroom by bedroom: N prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the N 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.

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.
The risers and the fallers
The spread across the N area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level.
