W1P 7 local market report West London
Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 14 sales registered with HM Land Registry in W1P 7 (West London) since 1997, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales data to 2009. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
W1P 7 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside W1P (West London). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.
What a home in W1P 7 sells for
The 2009 median in W1P 7 is £460,000, from 1 registered sales; the mean, £460,000, sits almost on top of it, so sales bunch tightly around the typical price.
For scale: the England and Wales median is £273,500, so W1P 7 trades 68% above the country as a whole.

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
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
W1P 7 recorded 1 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 2 sales a year recently, against 2 a year before 2008. 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.
Will W1P 7 prices rise from here?
Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 25% over five years in cash but down 30% 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.
The risers and the fallers
The spread across the W area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
