Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on SE4: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

SE4 is neither busy nor quiet, at about 24 sales a month, enough to learn from, though the year-on-year comparison is too thin to quote, so lean on the recent sold homes.

For sellers, the spread in SE4 is wide, with most sales between £329,550 and £1,047,761, so the closest sold homes of your type say much more than the middle; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.

Sell house

When buying here, on price, SE4 is well above the UK average, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

Worth checking before you commit: planning history nearby (3,562 applications on record within 500 m), whether it is freehold or leasehold and flood risk over the long term; your conveyancer should look at the title too.

With averages this broad, the free SE4 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning and council tax from the official sources.

In plain English

What the Lewisham (SE4) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: semi-detached homes sold for a typical £880,000 against £455,000 for flats: about 1.9 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £329,550 and £1,047,761, so the median says little about any one home.
  • 58% of these sales were leasehold: a genuine mix of houses and flats, so check the tenure of the home you are looking at.
  • This is an active district: about 24 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 SE4 report: your questions

What is the average house price in SE4?
The typical (median) sold price in SE4 is £575,000, from 250 recorded sales between 8 October 2025 and 21 August 2026. Most sales fell between £329,550 and £1,047,761. 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 SE4?
Typical sold prices by type in SE4: flats £455,000 (143 sales), terraced homes £822,970 (82 sales), semi-detached homes £880,000 (15 sales), detached homes £1,895,000 (1 sale). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in SE4?
SE4 is billed by Lewisham, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,237 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 SE4?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the SE4 district centre, the nearest being Beecroft Garden Primary (last Ofsted grade: Good). 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 SE4 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 SE4 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 SE4 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 4 to decile 7, with a median of decile 5 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 SE4 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near SE4?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 3562 applications within 500 m of the SE4 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 SE4 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 238 distinct addresses in the records we hold for SE4, 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 SE4 cover my exact street?
SE4 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.
