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
The Downs – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector SW20 8 – £940,000 Not enough sales £660,000 £351,500
Merton £780,000 £762,500 +2% since £750,000 +4% since £429,352 +82% since £317,500 +146% 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.
