How Summerhouse Road, Godalming prices moved

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Summerhouse Road, Godalming is £438,500 in 2009; the lowest is £105,000 in 1996. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £105,000 to £295,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £227,769, so the real change over the whole record is +63.6% — about +1.99% 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: -32.7% in cash against -48.3% 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.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Summerhouse Road, Godalming is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Summerhouse Road, Godalming

60 of the sales on record are leasehold and 32 freehold — 65.2% 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 £224,000 and the median freehold sale £745,550 — a gap of +232.8%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 2 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.

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 £285,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.28% 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 Summerhouse Road, Godalming compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Summerhouse Road, Godalming sits above that national figure — +81.3%.

Within Godalming the street ranks 349 of 567 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £299,995 (-4.8%).

The full range on record runs from £77,000 to £2,100,000. 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.

Summerhouse Road, 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.
