How Somervell Road, Harrow prices moved

The chart tracks the median Somervell Road, Harrow house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2024. 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 Somervell Road, Harrow is £585,000 in 2023; the lowest is £81,000 in 1996. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £83,250 to £547,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £184,854, so the real change over the whole record is +211.7% — about +4.00% 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: +49.4% in cash against +9.6% 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. Somervell Road, Harrow is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Somervell Road, Harrow

18 of the sales on record are leasehold and 290 freehold — 5.8% 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 £174,500 and the median freehold sale £246,500 — a gap of +41.3%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 16 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 Harrow at £1,766 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,385 for a one-bedroom home and £2,050 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £244,975 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.65% 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 HA2, 396 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 137 violent, 10 burglary, 24 vehicle-related and 88 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.4 times busier.

Against the 261,203 residents the 2021 census counted in Harrow, that is 1.52 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.

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,952 per square metre, across 71 of the 308 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

Somervell Road, Harrow sits in Harrow, in London.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Harrow at 14.0 times median local earnings of £39,192 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.

When were Somervell Road, Harrow house prices at their highest?

£2,952 per square metre, from the 71 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.
