How W1S 3 prices moved
There are too few years of sales in W1S 3 to plot a trend line. The figures below are drawn from the whole record rather than a yearly series.
Section 02
The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Section 03
Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to W1S 3 values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.
| Address | First recorded sale | Most recent sale | Cash a year | Real a year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| APARTMENT 502 25 Cork Street | £8,130,000 (2017) | £9,830,000 (2023) | +3.2% | -0.7% |
| APARTMENT 701 25 Cork Street | £11,150,000 (2020) | £11,250,000 (2023) | +0.3% | -5.6% |

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. W1S 3 is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 36 | 92.3% | £4,200,000 | £249,950 – £13,630,000 |
| Terraced | 2 | 5.1% | £365,000 | £365,000 – £11,200,000 |
| Detached | 1 | 2.6% | £8,500,000 | £8,500,000 – £8,500,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in W1S 3
37 of the sales on record are leasehold and 2 freehold — 94.9% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
The median leasehold sale is £4,200,000 and the median freehold sale £9,850,000 — a gap of +134.5%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 37 | 94.9% | £4,200,000 |
| Freehold | 2 | 5.1% | £9,850,000 |
| New build | 27 | 69.2% | £4,200,000 |
| Existing home | 12 | 30.8% | £6,495,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -35.3%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
A further 101 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09
How W1S 3 compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. W1S 3 sits above that national figure — +2,882.5%.
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £249,950 to £13,630,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in W1S 3?
The median price paid in W1S 3 across every sale on the register is £4,697,440. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in W1S 3?
39 sales are on record for W1S 3, the most recent completing on 24 Oct 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
When were W1S 3 house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £4,100,000, set in 2017. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in W1S 3?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 24 Oct 2024. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
