In cash terms the typical TW9 4 home went from £105,000 in 1995 to £640,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 180%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2015. The market now sits about 35% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the TW9 4 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 (+48.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−21.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What TW9 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −13.8% | −15.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.6% | −1.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
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.
How many homes change hands in TW9 4
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 40 sales completed in TW9 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 181 sales a year before the financial crisis and 88 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 TW9 4
TW9 4 falls under Richmond upon Thames, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £2,305 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,710 a month for a typical one-bed to £3,866 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Richmond upon Thames
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £640,000 median sold price, £2,305 a month is £27,660 a year, a gross yield of 4.3%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.
Reading the TW9 4 market
Only 40 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TW9 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.

What is for sale in TW9 right now
This is what you could actually buy today: 32 homes currently on the market from 7 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole TW9 district, not just TW9 4: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 9% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

What another bedroom costs in TW
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the TW area. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
