How this area has changed

Typical prices for flats, 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
Peppermint Road – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales £218,995
Postcode sector SG5 1 £217,500 £268,000 -19% since £212,500 +2% since £180,000 +21% since £180,975 +20% since
North Hertfordshire £225,000 £220,000 +2% since £187,500 +20% since £143,750 +57% since £135,000 +67% 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.
