Euston market report NW1, London
The NW1 (Euston) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money.

NW1 is the postcode district covering Euston, Regent's Park, Baker Street in London. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

What NW1 homes really sell for
The 2026 median for NW1 is £630,000, taken from 112 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £912,600, well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.
What a square metre costs in NW1
The last five years of sales put NW1 at roughly £11,540 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.
The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts NW1 121% above the country at large.

In cash terms the typical NW1 home went from £105,000 in 1995 to £630,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 176%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2017. The market now sits about 38% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the NW1 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 2013 (+31.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−13.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of flats dominate the record here, 84% of the typed total. In 2011, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £1,350,000 against £411,500 for a flat, 3.3 times the price.

| Type | Median (2026) | Sales that year | All-time sales |

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −10.8% | −12.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −2.1% | −6.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.8% | −4.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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
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.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
Over the last twelve months of data, 247 sales completed in NW1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 877 sales a year before the financial crisis and 342 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What tenants pay around NW1
NW1 falls under Camden, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £2,759 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £2,008 a month here against £3,890 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Camden
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £630,000 median purchase price, a rent of £2,759 a month (£33,108 a year) works out at a 5.3% 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 kind of market NW1 is
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.

What happens to NW1 prices now?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is down 10% over five years in cash but down 29% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: NW prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the NW 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.
| 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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
