Mortlake market report SW14, London
The SW14 (Mortlake) 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: 11,019 sales registered with HM Land Registry in SW14 (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 July 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: 73 registered 2026 sales put the SW14 (London) median at £785,000, down 18% on five years earlier, with a mean of £988,500, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £9,130 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 11,019 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
SW14 is a postcode district covering Mortlake, East Sheen in London. It is the most useful size for market figures: tight enough to describe somewhere real, large enough that sales keep coming and the medians hold steady.

What SW14 homes really sell for
In the SW14 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £785,000, from 73 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £988,500, sitting well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.
Price per square metre in SW14
The last five years of sales put SW14 at roughly £9,130 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.
England and Wales as a whole trade at a £285,000 median, leaving SW14 175% above the national figure.

In cash terms the typical SW14 home went from £150,000 in 1995 to £785,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 141%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2016, and today's median remains roughly 40% under it: a 2016 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SW14 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 2000 (+37.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−19.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 39% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £1,960,000 against £455,000 for a flat, 4.3 times the price.

What SW14 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −19.1% | −21.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −3.9% | −8.3% |

| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
Sales activity in SW14
The year-by-year sales count
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.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
SW14 recorded 170 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 450 sales a year before the financial crisis and 214 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.
What homes rent for around SW14
SW14 falls under Richmond upon Thames, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £2,305 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,710 a month here against £3,866 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Richmond upon Thames
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £785,000 median sold price, £2,305 a month is £27,660 a year, a gross yield of 3.5%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in SW: the cost
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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | — | £1,050,000 | £1,797,500 (+71%) | £2,600,000 (+45%) |
| Semi-detached | £478,500 | £645,000 (+35%) | £850,000 (+32%) | £1,200,000 (+41%) | £1,800,000 (+50%) |

| Flat | £428,000 | £590,000 (+38%) | £900,000 (+53%) | £1,850,000 (+106%) | £3,700,000 (+100%) |
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.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
