How this area has changed
Typical prices for 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 ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Redwaters | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector WN7 1 | £335,000 | £262,500 +28% since | £189,250 +77% since | Not enough sales | £193,495 +73% 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.
How homes change hands in WN7 1, over the last five years (1,021 sales):
- What sells: 59% terraced, 16% semi-detached, 10% flats, 8% detached, 7% other.
- 82% sold leasehold, and 2% were new builds.
- 163 sales in the last twelve months, against 295 in the same twelve months five years ago.
