Charlton market report SE7 7, London
The SE7 7 (Charlton) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 5,170 sales registered with HM Land Registry in SE7 7 (London) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here 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: 48 registered 2026 sales put the SE7 7 (London) median at £530,000, up 9% on five years earlier, with a mean of £556,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £6,030 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 5,170 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
SE7 7 is one sector of SE7 (London): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

In cash terms the typical SE7 7 home went from £55,800 in 1995 to £530,000 in 2026, roughly 9 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 337%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 14% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SE7 7 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 1999 (+32.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2014 (−13.8%). 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) | +8.2% | +5.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.8% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +5.0% | +2.2% |
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.
Sales activity in SE7 7
How many homes change hands
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, 48 sales completed in SE7 7. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 206 sales a year before the financial crisis and 102 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.
The rental side of SE7 7
The local authority for SE7 7 is Greenwich, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,952 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,529 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,941 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Greenwich
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,952 a month is £23,424 a year, which against the £530,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.4%. 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 SE7 7 market
This is a thin market: 48 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.

These cover the whole SE7 district, not just SE7 7: live asking prices are collected per district.
11% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
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: SE prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the SE 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.
