How Caernarvon Drive, Ilford prices moved
The chart tracks the median Caernarvon Drive, Ilford house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2007. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 2 | £62,000 | £137,669 |
| 2000s | 6 | £123,000 | £224,070 |
The highest yearly median on record for Caernarvon Drive, Ilford is £194,000 in 2007; the lowest is £62,000 in 1998. Across the full 10-year record the cash median has moved from £62,000 to £194,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £128,559, so the real change over the whole record is +162.4% — about +11.31% 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: +212.9% in cash against +162.4% 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.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Caernarvon Drive, Ilford 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 | 72 | 60.5% | £148,000 | £45,500 – £335,000 |
| Semi-detached | 38 | 31.9% | £179,000 | £64,250 – £555,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Caernarvon Drive, Ilford
76 of the sales on record are leasehold and 43 freehold — 63.9% 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 £156,500 and the median freehold sale £195,000 — a gap of +24.6%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 76 | 63.9% | £156,500 |
| Freehold | 43 | 36.1% | £195,000 |
A further 8 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 Caernarvon Drive, Ilford compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Caernarvon Drive, Ilford sits above that national figure — +1.6%.
Within Ilford the street ranks 661 of 826 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £201,950 (-20.8%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,389 per square metre, across 34 of the 119 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 £45,500 to £555,000. 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.

£2,389 per square metre, from the 34 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.
