In cash terms the typical TW8 home went from £75,000 in 1995 to £470,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 189%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2016; the current median sits about 30% 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 TW8 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 2002 (+34.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.9%). 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, 71% of the typed total. In 2022, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £851,500 against £456,200 for a flat, 1.9 times the price.

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
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
TW8 recorded 229 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 425 sales a year before the financial crisis and 317 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The rental side of TW8
The local authority for TW8 is Hounslow, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,933 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,567 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £3,054, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Hounslow
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £470,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,933 a month (£23,196 a year) works out at a 4.9% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in TW
What homes of each size actually sold for across the TW area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £511,000 | £680,000 (+33%) | £980,000 (+44%) | £1,825,000 (+86%) |
| Semi-detached | £395,000 | £468,000 (+18%) | £561,000 (+20%) | £788,750 (+41%) | £1,595,000 (+102%) |

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.
