What buyers actually paid in TW
Take the 2,285 registered 2026 sales in TW and the middle price, the median, is £500,000. The mean lands at £617,400, a long way above it, which tells you a few very expensive sales are pulling the average up.
TW prices by floor area
Per square metre, TW homes have averaged around £6,640 over the last five years of sales. The floor areas behind the figure come from Energy Performance Certificates, and the by-the-metre view is the fair comparison across home sizes.
Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, TW runs 75% above it.

In cash terms the typical TW home went from £80,400 in 1995 to £500,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 186%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 18% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the TW 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 (+23.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−5.7%). 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 flats dominate the record here, 36% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £727,500 against £345,000 for a flat, 2.1 times the price.

What TW has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −2.5% | −4.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.9% | −3.8% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +1.2% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.9% | −1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.8% |
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.
How many homes change hands in TW
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 4,115 TW 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 10,261 sales a year before the financial crisis and 4,887 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.
What tenants pay around TW
The local authority for TW is Hounslow, the local authority covering most of the TW area (parts fall under Richmond upon Thames and Spelthorne, where rents differ), and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,933 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,567 a month here against £3,054 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Hounslow
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £500,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,933 a month (£23,196 a year) works out at a 4.6% 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.
Common questions on TW (Twickenham)
Is TW (Twickenham) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in TW (Twickenham)?
Are property prices falling in TW (Twickenham)?
Where do TW prices go next?
Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 4% over five years in cash but down 18% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
On the market in TW today
Everything above is what homes in TW sold for. This is what you could actually buy today: 1,666 homes currently on the market from 7 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 10% below the TW median sold price.
Set against 4,115 registered sales in the last twelve months, the 1,666 homes on the market here are roughly 5 months of supply at last year's pace, and more in reality, since only agents who publish to HomesIndex are counted.
15% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
"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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
When homes in TW change hands
March is when TW changes hands most (11.5% of the 29,625 sales dated 2021 to 2025); April is the quiet end at 6.0%. That is a marked seasonal rhythm. A sale completes weeks after it is agreed, so the busy month reflects deals struck earlier in the year; a seller who wants competition should be on the market ahead of it.

Moving up a bedroom in TW: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the TW area, straight 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £471,500 | £532,500 (+13%) | £622,500 (+17%) | £791,000 (+27%) | £1,150,000 (+45%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
