Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on SW19: plenty of sales, so let the evidence lead
At roughly 62 sales a month, SW19 is a lively market, so there is plenty of recent evidence to price from, even though a reliable twelve-month trend is out of reach.
When selling here, the spread in SW19 is wide, with most sales between £300,000 and £1,403,950, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; buyers here can check your price against a long list of recent sales.
Sell houseFor buyers, on price, SW19 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 (3,948 applications on record within 500 m), whether it is freehold or leasehold and long-term flood risk; your conveyancer should look at the title too.
For what the averages cannot tell you, the free SW19 OfferCheck brings flood, crime, planning and council tax together.

In plain English
What the Merton (SW19) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £3,600,000 against £420,000 for flats: about 8.6 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £300,000 and £1,403,950, so the median says little about any one home.
- 57% 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 a busy district: about 62 recorded sales a month.

Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled SW19 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 6 to decile 10, with a median of decile 7 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
SW19 8HA, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 7 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so SW19 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in SW19: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

Cost to run
Two sources, one table
What it costs to run a home in SW19, band by band
Merton's council tax for 2026-27 set against the SW19 median sold price of £538,750 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearMerton | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £538,750 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,431 | £119 | 0.27% |

| H | over £320,000 | £4,294 | £358 | 0.80% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the SW19 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. 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.
