The SW4 0 (Clapham) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money.

No valuations, no estimates, no asking prices.

Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

Today's SW4 0 prices, from the sold record

In the SW4 0 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £560,000, from 26 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £668,100, sitting a long way above it, which tells you a few very expensive sales are pulling the average up.

SW4 0 prices by floor area

Measured by floor area, the last five years of SW4 0 sales average about £9,670 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts SW4 0 96% above the country at large.

In cash terms the typical SW4 0 home went from £92,000 in 1995 to £560,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 180%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2016, and today's median remains roughly 48% under it: a 2016 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

Year-on-year change in the SW4 0 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 2014 (+45.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−18.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.

Transaction volumes

How many homes change hands

Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.

SW4 0 recorded 26 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 175 sales a year before the financial crisis and 87 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.

The shape of the SW4 0 market

Only 26 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SW4 0 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

The rental side of SW4 0

SW4 0 falls under Lambeth, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £2,527 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,882 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £3,725, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

£2,527 a month is £30,324 a year, which against the £560,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.4%. 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 SW4 right now

28% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.

"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

Moving up a bedroom in SW: the cost

What homes of each size actually sold for across the SW area, 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.

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the SW area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
