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 ago	10 years ago	15 years ago	20 years ago
Thackeray Road	–	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales
Postcode sector SW8 3	£552,500	£568,750 -3% since	£558,000 -1% since	£330,000 +67% since	£250,000 +121% 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.

Sector SW8 3 Wandsworth Typical price each year, flats. A gap is a year with too few sales.
