How Highbury Drive, Leatherhead prices moved

The chart tracks the median Highbury Drive, Leatherhead house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2006 to 2025. 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 Highbury Drive, Leatherhead is £308,000 in 2018; the lowest is £185,500 in 2007. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £232,498 to £282,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £413,916, so the real change over the whole record is -30.4% — about -1.89% 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: +5.2% in cash against -23.8% 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.

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 Highbury Drive, Leatherhead values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

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

Ownership and new build in Highbury Drive, Leatherhead

219 of the sales on record are leasehold and 0 freehold — 100.0% 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid

Freehold00.0%
New build5223.7%£232,498

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -5.1%. 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 7 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 Elmbridge at £1,852 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,237 for a one-bedroom home and £1,896 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £240,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.26% 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 KT22, 104 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 29 violent, 5 burglary, 4 vehicle-related and 22 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.6 times quieter.

Against the 138,754 residents the 2021 census counted in Elmbridge, that is 0.75 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 Highbury Drive, Leatherhead compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Highbury Drive, Leatherhead sits above that national figure — +52.4%.

Within Leatherhead the street ranks 533 of 632 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £355,000 (-32.4%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,929 per square metre, across 86 of the 219 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 £50,400 to £342,000. 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.

Highbury Drive, Leatherhead sits in Elmbridge, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Elmbridge at 15.7 times median local earnings of £41,309 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 Highbury Drive, Leatherhead?

How many homes have sold in Highbury Drive, Leatherhead?

219 sales are on record for Highbury Drive, Leatherhead, the most recent completing on 31 Mar 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Highbury Drive, Leatherhead house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £308,000, set in 2018. 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 Highbury Drive, Leatherhead?

£3,929 per square metre, from the 86 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.
