Summary

House prices in SW1E: the typical (median) sold price is £1,712,500, well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index, July 2026). Over the last twelve months the local median is down 67.4%, comparing 16 sales with 20, so a handful of homes can swing it. SW1E is a quiet market, with about 2 recorded sales a month. By property type, 90% were flats (typically £1,600,000) and 10% were terraced homes (typically £3,725,000).

Data from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, up to 28 August 2026.

Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on SW1E: few sales, so go in with your eyes open

SW1E has seen just 156 sales since January 2020, and prices have drifted down, so sellers should plan for a longer sale and buyers can afford to be patient.

When selling here, terraced homes typically sold for £3,725,000 against £1,600,000 for flats, which explains a spread of £500,000 to £6,253,005, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; with so few sales, allow extra time and a local agent’s view; cash buyers typically offer around 70–85% of market value (a rough guide, not a quote), which only makes sense if certainty is worth that much to you.

Sell house

For buyers, typical prices in SW1E sit well above the UK average, but the local median has slipped, so it is fair to test an asking price, though a dip is not a trend.

Before you offer in SW1E, check lease length, ground rent and service charge, planning history nearby (6,634 applications on record within 500 m) and flood risk over the long term, and ask your conveyancer about the title.

The sold prices leave a lot open; the free SW1E OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English

What the Wandsworth (SW1E) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: terraced homes sold for a typical £3,725,000 against £1,600,000 for flats: about 2.3 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £500,000 and £6,253,005, so the median says little about any one home.
  • 83% 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.

Only 156 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.

  • This is a quiet district: only about 2 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 SW1E report: your questions

What is the average house price in SW1E?
The typical (median) sold price in SW1E is £1,712,500, from 156 recorded sales between 31 January 2020 and 16 July 2026. Most sales fell between £500,000 and £6,253,005. 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.
Are house prices going up in SW1E?
The local median is down 67.4% over the last twelve months, comparing 16 sales with 20 in the twelve months before. A past trend is not a forecast.
How many homes sold in SW1E last year?
16 sales were recorded in the most recent twelve months we can measure, against 20 in the twelve months before. Recent sales can take weeks to reach the register, so the latest months may rise a little.
What does each type of home cost in SW1E?
Typical sold prices by type in SW1E: flats £1,600,000 (120 sales), terraced homes £3,725,000 (14 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in SW1E?
SW1E is billed by Wandsworth, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £1,028 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 SW1E?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the SW1E district centre, the nearest being Westminster City School (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 SW1E 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 SW1E a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 SW1E postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 8 to decile 9, with a median of decile 9 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 SW1E usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near SW1E?
