Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on NW8: steady sales, so price from the evidence

NW8 sees about 22 sales a month, which is enough to price from, though not enough history for us to call a clear twelve-month direction.

If you are selling, with detached homes at £10,750,000 and flats at £640,000, the £364,000 to £4,595,000 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; most homes here sell leasehold, so have the lease length, ground rent and service charge paperwork ready before you list.

Sell house

If you are buying, on price, NW8 is well above the UK average, so a premium over the average needs a reason you can see in the sold homes of the same type.

Our checklist before an offer: the lease (length, ground rent and service charge), what has been applied for nearby (7,814 applications on record within 500 m) and long-term flood risk, plus the title, which your conveyancer should review.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free NW8 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the Brent (NW8) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £10,750,000 against £640,000 for flats: about 16.8 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £364,000 and £4,595,000, so the median says little about any one home.
  • 80% of these sales were leasehold, which marks a flat-heavy market. Buyers here weigh remaining lease length, ground rent and service charges as much as the price.
  • This is an active district: about 22 recorded sales a month.

It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The NW8 report: your questions

What is the average house price in NW8?
The typical (median) sold price in NW8 is £850,000, from 250 recorded sales between 3 September 2025 and 14 August 2026. Most sales fell between £364,000 and £4,595,000. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in NW8?
Typical sold prices by type in NW8: flats £640,000 (199 sales), terraced homes £2,652,500 (20 sales), detached homes £10,750,000 (11 sales), semi-detached homes £5,700,000 (11 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in NW8?
NW8 is billed by Brent, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,235 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near NW8?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the NW8 district centre, the nearest being Arnold House School. These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the NW8 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is NW8 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 NW8 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 1 to decile 9, with a median of decile 7 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like NW8 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near NW8?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 7814 applications within 500 m of the NW8 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in NW8 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 204 distinct addresses in the records we hold for NW8, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does NW8 cover my exact street?
NW8 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
