Battersea market report SW11 2, London

The standing SW11 2 (Battersea) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 6,154 registered sales in SW11 2 (London) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

In short: the 2026 median for SW11 2 (London) is £530,500, from 50 registered sales, down 13% on five years earlier; the mean is £591,600, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £8,100 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 6,154 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.

SW11 2 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside SW11 (London). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

SW11 2 prices by floor area

In cash terms the typical SW11 2 home went from £81,800 in 1995 to £530,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 198%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 32% 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 SW11 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 2009 (+37.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−21.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

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.

The register shows 50 SW11 2 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 253 sales a year before the financial crisis and 120 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.

The shape of the SW11 2 market

This is a thin market: 50 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. Against the SW11 district median, SW11 2 sits 24% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

Rents around SW11 2

For renting purposes SW11 2 sits in Wandsworth. The ONS average private rent there is £2,599 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £1,911 a month for a typical one-bed to £3,782 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

Set against the £530,500 median sold price, £2,599 a month is £31,188 a year, a gross yield of 5.9%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

Of everything listed here, 28% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.

"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.

What another bedroom costs in SW

Real sold prices by size across the SW area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
