In cash terms the typical TW16 5 home went from £86,000 in 1995 to £515,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 175%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2017, and today's median remains roughly 35% under it: a 2017 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the TW16 5 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 1997 (+34.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−23.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −19.0% | −20.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.6% | −4.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.2% | −2.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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, 31 sales completed in TW16 5. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 119 sales a year before the financial crisis and 73 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.
Reading the TW16 5 market
This is a thin market: 31 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the TW16 district median, TW16 5 sits 10% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
Rents around TW16 5
TW16 5 falls under Spelthorne, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,631 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,184 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,397 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Spelthorne
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £515,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,631 a month (£19,572 a year) works out at a 3.8% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: TW prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the TW area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £511,000 | £680,000 (+33%) | £980,000 (+44%) | £1,825,000 (+86%) |

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
