In cash terms the typical SW20 home went from £88,000 in 1995 to £685,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 258%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 22% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SW20 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 2007 (+21.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−8.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SW20 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.5% | −8.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.2% | −4.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.8% | −1.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.2% | +1.4% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of flats dominate the record here, 41% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £1,705,000 against £430,000 for a flat, 4.0 times the price.

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 last five years, month by month
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
SW20 recorded 289 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 699 sales a year before the financial crisis and 362 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
Rents around SW20
SW20 falls under Merton, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £2,114 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,594 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £3,188, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Merton
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£2,114 a month is £25,368 a year, which against the £685,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.7%. 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.

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. 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.
| 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%) |

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.
