In cash terms the typical SE15 5 home went from £65,000 in 1995 to £539,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 281%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 27% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SE15 5 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 2000 (+28.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2021 (−12.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.0% | −4.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.5% | +1.7% |
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.
Sales activity in SE15 5
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.
SE15 5 recorded 30 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 123 sales a year before the financial crisis and 63 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.
Rents around SE15 5
For renting purposes SE15 5 sits in Southwark. The ONS average private rent there is £2,394 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £1,814 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £3,491, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Southwark
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£2,394 a month is £28,728 a year, which against the £539,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.3%. 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.
What kind of market SE15 5 is
This is a thin market: 30 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.

Is SE15 5 (Peckham) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in SE15 5 (Peckham)?
Are property prices falling in SE15 5 (Peckham)?
Are SE15 5 prices heading up or down?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 9% over five years in cash but down 14% 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: SE prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SE area. 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 | — | £516,250 | £795,000 (+54%) | £1,325,000 (+67%) | £2,025,000 (+53%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

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