How Elgin Road, Ilford prices moved
The chart tracks the median Elgin Road, Ilford house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2014. 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 | 5 | £43,500 | £96,591 |
| 2000s | 8 | £110,000 | £200,388 |
| 2010s | 1 | £170,250 | £240,053 |
The highest yearly median on record for Elgin Road, Ilford is £174,000 in 2007; the lowest is £32,750 in 1996. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £35,750 to £170,250.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £79,382, so the real change over the whole record is +207.6% — about +6.09% 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: +9.1% in cash against -15.6% 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.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Elgin Road, Ilford values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Elgin Road, 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 | 188 | 73.4% | £75,000 | £25,000 – £380,000 |
| Terraced | 63 | 24.6% | £216,000 | £1,250 – £831,000 |
| Semi-detached | 5 | 2.0% | £325,000 | £79,000 – £435,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Elgin Road, Ilford
198 of the sales on record are leasehold and 58 freehold — 77.3% 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 £79,998 and the median freehold sale £250,000 — a gap of +212.5%. 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 | 198 | 77.3% | £79,998 |
| Freehold | 58 | 22.7% | £250,000 |
| New build | 2 | 0.8% | £75,150 |
| Existing home | 254 | 99.2% | £110,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -31.7%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
A further 18 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 Elgin Road, Ilford compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Elgin Road, Ilford sits below that national figure — -30.2%.
Within Ilford the street ranks 782 of 826 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £201,950 (-45.5%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,083 per square metre, across 64 of the 256 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 £1,250 to £831,000. 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Elgin Road, Ilford?
The median price paid in Elgin Road, Ilford across every sale on the register is £110,000. 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 Elgin Road, Ilford?
256 sales are on record for Elgin Road, Ilford, the most recent completing on 26 Aug 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Elgin Road, Ilford house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £174,000, set in 2007. 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 Elgin Road, Ilford?
£2,083 per square metre, from the 64 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 26 Aug 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.
