How this area has changed

Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area Now 5 years ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Apsley Road – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector SE25 4 – £620,000 Not enough sales £249,975 £244,975
Croydon £545,000 £511,875 +6% since £438,750 +24% since £280,000 +95% since £258,000 +111% since

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
