How Derwent Close, Amersham prices moved

The chart tracks the median Derwent Close, Amersham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2005. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Derwent Close, Amersham is £175,500 in 2005; the lowest is £78,500 in 1997. Across the full 9-year record the cash median has moved from £78,500 to £175,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £166,444, so the real change over the whole record is +92.1% — about +8.50% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +123.6% in cash against +92.1% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

A further 4 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 Derwent Close, Amersham compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Derwent Close, Amersham sits above that national figure — +0.8%.

Within Amersham the street ranks 316 of 323 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £340,000 (-53.3%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,465 per square metre, across 19 of the 76 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
