Euston market report NW1 8, London
The NW1 8 (Euston) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Underneath every chart here sit 2,713 registered sales in NW1 8 (London) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: 22 registered 2026 sales put the NW1 8 (London) median at £880,000, down 23% on five years earlier, with a mean of £1,036,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £13,660 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 2,713 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
NW1 8 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside NW1 (London). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

What NW1 8 homes really sell for
The NW1 8 median stands at £880,000 for 2026, built from 22 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £1,036,000, well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.
Price per square metre in NW1 8
The last five years of sales put NW1 8 at roughly £13,660 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, NW1 8 runs 209% above it.

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.

| 1996 | £140,000 | £295,254 | 139 |
| 1995 | £129,000 | £280,426 | 86 |
In cash terms the typical NW1 8 home went from £129,000 in 1995 to £880,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 214%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 39% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NW1 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 2010 (+61.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−25.3%). 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) | −16.6% | −18.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −5.1% | −9.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.1% | −2.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +5.3% | +2.4% |
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.
Sales activity in NW1 8
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 22 sales completed in NW1 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 118 sales a year before the financial crisis and 56 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 NW1 8 market
This is a thin market: 22 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Within NW1, this sector trades 40% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
What homes rent for around NW1 8
NW1 8 falls under Camden, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £2,759 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £2,008 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £3,890, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Camden
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £880,000 median purchase price, a rent of £2,759 a month (£33,108 a year) works out at a 3.8% 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 NW: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the NW 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | — | £992,500 | £1,400,000 (+41%) | £2,225,000 (+59%) |
| Semi-detached | — | £568,000 | £680,000 (+20%) | £969,000 (+43%) | £1,525,000 (+57%) |
| Terraced | £490,000 | £545,000 (+11%) | £720,000 (+32%) | £1,150,000 (+60%) | £1,850,000 (+61%) |
| Flat | £424,334 | £586,000 (+38%) | £922,500 (+57%) | £1,675,000 (+82%) | £2,550,500 (+52%) |
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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
