What a square metre costs in N4 2

A typical N4 2 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.

In cash terms the typical N4 2 home went from £72,500 in 1995 to £550,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 249%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2019; the current median sits about 31% below that. Someone who bought at the 2019 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the N4 2 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 2006 (+25.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−15.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What N4 2 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.2% | −7.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.9% | −5.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | 0.0% | −3.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
N4 2 recorded 69 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 241 sales a year recently, against 239 a year before 2008. 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 rental side of N4 2
The local authority for N4 2 is Hackney, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £2,622 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,972 a month for a typical one-bed to £3,630 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Hackney
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£2,622 a month is £31,464 a year, which against the £550,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.7%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

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
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the N area. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
The risers and the fallers

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. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
