How EC4R 1 prices moved
There are too few years of sales in EC4R 1 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 EC4R 1 values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.
| Address | First recorded sale | Most recent sale | Cash a year | Real a year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FLAT 40 30 Queen Street | £335,000 (2004) | £520,000 (2019) | +3.0% | +0.6% |
| FLAT 36 30 Queen Street | £320,850 (2004) | £510,000 (2017) | +3.6% | +1.2% |

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. EC4R 1 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 | 96 | 100.0% | £170,000 | £170,000 – £650,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in EC4R 1
96 of the sales on record are leasehold and 0 freehold — 100.0% 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 96 | 100.0% | £170,000 |
| Freehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| New build | 69 | 71.9% | £170,000 |
| Existing home | 27 | 28.1% | £325,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -47.7%. 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 21 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 EC4R 1 compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. EC4R 1 sits above that national figure — +7.9%.
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £7,136 per square metre, across 8 of the 96 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £170,000 to £650,000. 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 EC4R 1?
The median price paid in EC4R 1 across every sale on the register is £170,000. 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 EC4R 1?
96 sales are on record for EC4R 1, the most recent completing on 12 Jul 2019. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
When were EC4R 1 house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £170,000, set in 2004. 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 EC4R 1?
£7,136 per square metre, from the 8 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 12 Jul 2019. 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.
