Chiswick market report W4 5, London
The W4 5 (Chiswick) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 6,680 sales registered with HM Land Registry in W4 5 (London) since 1995, 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 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
In short: 55 registered 2026 sales put the W4 5 (London) median at £670,000, up 6% on five years earlier, with a mean of £835,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £9,130 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 6,680 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
W4 5 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside W4 (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 W4 5 homes really sell for
In the W4 5 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £670,000, from 55 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £835,100, sitting well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.
What a square metre costs in W4 5
Averaged across five years of sales, floor space in W4 5 costs about £9,130 per square metre. Each sale's Energy Performance Certificate supplies the floor area, and pricing by the metre is what lets flats and houses share one scale.

Year by year: the median as it was recorded, and the same figure brought into today's money with ONS CPIH, which is where "did homes get dearer" actually gets answered. Hover shows each year; the legend isolates a series.

| 1995 | £96,000 | £208,689 | 221 |
In cash terms the typical W4 5 home went from £96,000 in 1995 to £670,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 221%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2014. The market now sits about 31% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the W4 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 2014 (+36.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−17.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +8.5% | +6.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +0.5% | −2.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Sales activity in W4 5
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 55 sales completed in W4 5. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 268 sales a year before the financial crisis and 155 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.
How W4 5 trades
This is a thin market: 55 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 W4 district median, W4 5 sits 19% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
What homes rent for around W4 5
The local authority for W4 5 is Ealing, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £2,060 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,590 a month for a typical one-bed to £3,217 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Ealing
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £670,000 median sold price, £2,060 a month is £24,720 a year, a gross yield of 3.7%: 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.

28% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.

Moving up a bedroom in W: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the W area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.
