In cash terms the typical SL6 4 home went from £83,500 in 1995 to £470,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 159%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2019, and today's median remains roughly 27% under it: a 2019 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SL6 4 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 2014 (+34.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2022 (−22.0%). 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) | +4.4% | +2.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.2% | −5.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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, 33 sales completed in SL6 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 180 sales a year before the financial crisis and 105 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What homes rent for around SL6 4
The local authority for SL6 4 is Windsor and Maidenhead, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,818 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,257 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,725 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £470,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,818 a month (£21,816 a year) works out at a 4.6% 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.
Reading the SL6 4 market
This is a thin market: 33 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.
SL6 4 (Taplow): the questions that come up
Is SL6 4 (Taplow) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in SL6 4 (Taplow)?
Are property prices falling in SL6 4 (Taplow)?
Will SL6 4 prices rise from here?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is down 6% over five years in cash but down 26% 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.
SL6's current homes for sale
The live side of the market holds 338 homes at the moment, listed by 9 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole SL6 district, not just SL6 4: live asking prices are collected per district.
20% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. 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.

What another bedroom costs in SL
Real sold prices by size across the SL area, straight 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.
