The standing SW11 5 (Battersea) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 9,212 registered sales in SW11 5 (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 recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 62 registered 2026 sales put the SW11 5 (London) median at £765,800, up 2% on five years earlier, with a mean of £735,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £8,930 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 9,212 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
SW11 5 is one sector of SW11 (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.

| 1995 | £103,500 | £224,993 | 333 |
In cash terms the typical SW11 5 home went from £103,500 in 1995 to £765,800 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 240%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2016, and today's median remains roughly 26% under it: a 2016 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SW11 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 1997 (+27.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−9.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.5% | +1.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.5% | −4.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +0.4% | −2.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.3% | +1.5% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
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 5 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 392 sales a year before the financial crisis and 178 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 SW11 5
The local authority for SW11 5 is Wandsworth, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £2,599 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,911 a month here against £3,782 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Wandsworth
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£2,599 a month is £31,188 a year, which against the £765,800 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.1%. 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 is for sale in SW11 right now
Turning to what is actually available: 232 homes on the market right now, from 12 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole SW11 district, not just SW11 5: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 28% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in SW
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SW area. 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.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
