In cash terms the typical SW17 8 home went from £75,000 in 1995 to £610,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 274%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2016; the current median sits about 32% below that. Someone who bought at the 2016 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SW17 8 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 1998 (+28.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−8.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.2% | −8.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.3% | −5.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.4% | −3.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 87 sales completed in SW17 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 418 sales a year before the financial crisis and 212 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.
Rents around SW17 8
For renting purposes SW17 8 sits in Wandsworth. The ONS average private rent there is £2,599 a month (May 2026). 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.
Against the £610,000 median purchase price, a rent of £2,599 a month (£31,188 a year) works out at a 5.1% 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.

What another bedroom costs in SW
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SW area, 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.
