How Queen Elizabeth Street, London prices moved
The chart tracks the median Queen Elizabeth Street, London house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 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.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 5 | £125,000 | £277,559 |
| 2000s | 10 | £248,000 | £451,783 |
| 2010s | 8 | £525,000 | £740,250 |
| 2020s | 5 | £495,500 | £506,272 |
The highest yearly median on record for Queen Elizabeth Street, London is £750,000 in 2015; the lowest is £90,250 in 1995. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £90,250 to £545,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £200,398, so the real change over the whole record is +177.9% — about +3.47% 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: -27.3% in cash against -47.3% 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.

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 Queen Elizabeth Street, London 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. Queen Elizabeth Street, London 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 | 520 | 98.3% | £270,000 | £59,000 – £2,600,000 |
| Terraced | 9 | 1.7% | £235,000 | £118,000 – £995,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Queen Elizabeth Street, London
529 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 529 | 100.0% | £270,000 |
| Freehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| New build | 14 | 2.6% | £155,625 |
| Existing home | 515 | 97.4% | £275,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -43.4%. 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 25 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.

Living in Queen Elizabeth Street, London
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Lambeth, 50.9% of 200,414 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 2.3% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Lambeth at £2,523 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,880 for a one-bedroom home and £2,680 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £270,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.21% 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 SE1, 2,581 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 481 violent, 95 burglary, 60 vehicle-related and 377 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 15.5 times busier.
Against the 317,654 residents the 2021 census counted in Lambeth, that is 8.13 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
The neighbourhood around Queen Elizabeth Street, London
The 2021 census counted 317,654 residents in Lambeth across 134,688 households. 34.8% of those households own their home and 65.0% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
24 state and independent schools have a SE1 postcode: 12 primary, 7 secondary, 3 16 plus, 1 nursery, 1 all-through. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Queen Elizabeth Street, London compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Queen Elizabeth Street, London sits above that national figure — +71.4%.
Within London the street ranks 11241 of 21431 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £285,000 (-5.3%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £5,066 per square metre, across 173 of the 529 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 £59,000 to £2,600,000. 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.
Queen Elizabeth Street, London sits in Lambeth, in London.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Lambeth at 11.1 times median local earnings of £48,690 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.
