In cash terms the typical NW4 2 home went from £81,000 in 1995 to £847,000 in 2026, roughly 10 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 381%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 12% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the NW4 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 2015 (+56.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2014 (−17.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What NW4 2 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +16.0% | +13.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.4% | −1.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.6% | +1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +6.1% | +3.2% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 17 sales completed in NW4 2. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 125 sales a year before the financial crisis and 48 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.
Rents around NW4 2
For renting purposes NW4 2 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.
£1,934 a month is £23,208 a year, which against the £847,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 2.7%. 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 shape of the NW4 2 market
This is a thin market: 17 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. Within NW4, this sector trades 51% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

NW4's current homes for sale
Turning to what is actually available: 39 homes on the market right now, from 7 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole NW4 district, not just NW4 2: live asking prices are collected per district.
31% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. 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.

Moving up a bedroom in NW: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NW area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
