How High Ridge, Godalming prices moved

The chart tracks the median High Ridge, Godalming house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2021. 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 High Ridge, Godalming is £450,000 in 2016; the lowest is £79,950 in 1998. Across the full 27-year record the cash median has moved from £132,500 to £390,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £294,213, so the real change over the whole record is +67.5% — about +2.00% 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: +56.0% in cash against +10.7% 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Guildford at £1,731 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,181 for a one-bedroom home and £1,859 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £250,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.31% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of GU7, 82 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 32 violent, 1 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 15 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.0 times quieter.

Against the 143,650 residents the 2021 census counted in Guildford, that is 0.57 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Section 08

How High Ridge, Godalming compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. High Ridge, Godalming sits above that national figure — +58.7%.

Within Godalming the street ranks 407 of 567 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £299,995 (-16.7%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £4,277 per square metre, across 17 of the 122 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 £62,500 to £700,000. 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.

High Ridge, Godalming sits in Guildford, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Guildford at 11.0 times median local earnings of £45,061 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in High Ridge, Godalming?

The median price paid in High Ridge, Godalming across every sale on the register is £250,000. 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 High Ridge, Godalming?

122 sales are on record for High Ridge, Godalming, the most recent completing on 10 Jan 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have High Ridge, Godalming house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +56.0% between 2006 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +10.7%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were High Ridge, Godalming house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £450,000, set in 2016. 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 High Ridge, Godalming?

£4,277 per square metre, from the 17 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 10 Jan 2025. 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.
