In cash terms the typical SW11 3 home went from £105,000 in 1995 to £508,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 123%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2017. The market now sits about 41% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SW11 3 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 (+54.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−17.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SW11 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −3.6% | −5.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −4.2% | −8.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −1.6% | −4.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 62 SW11 3 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 357 sales a year before the financial crisis and 167 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.
Reading the SW11 3 market
Within SW11, this sector trades 27% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What homes rent for around SW11 3
SW11 3 falls under Wandsworth, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £2,599 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,911 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £3,782, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Wandsworth
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £508,500 median purchase price, a rent of £2,599 a month (£31,188 a year) works out at a 6.1% 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.

Moving up a bedroom in SW: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SW area. 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.
