How Chapel Wood, Longfield prices moved
The chart tracks the median Chapel Wood, Longfield 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 | 4 | £60,000 | £133,228 |
| 2000s | 7 | £128,500 | £234,089 |
| 2010s | 4 | £181,500 | £255,915 |
| 2020s | 3 | £300,000 | £306,522 |
The highest yearly median on record for Chapel Wood, Longfield is £324,000 in 2021; the lowest is £56,000 in 1995. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £56,000 to £300,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £124,346, so the real change over the whole record is +146.5% — about +3.05% 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: +41.5% in cash against -0.8% 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.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Chapel Wood, Longfield 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 146 | 83.0% | £154,000 | £28,720 – £425,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Chapel Wood, Longfield
1 of the sales on record are leasehold and 175 freehold — 0.6% 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 £28,720 and the median freehold sale £155,000 — a gap of +439.7%. 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 | 1 | 0.6% | £28,720 |
| Freehold | 175 | 99.4% | £155,000 |
A further 2 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 Chapel Wood, Longfield compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Chapel Wood, Longfield sits below that national figure — -1.9%.
Within Longfield the street ranks 158 of 171 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £249,995 (-38.2%).

The full range on record runs from £28,720 to £425,000. 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 Chapel Wood, Longfield?
The median price paid in Chapel Wood, Longfield across every sale on the register is £154,500. 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 Chapel Wood, Longfield?
176 sales are on record for Chapel Wood, Longfield, the most recent completing on 1 Dec 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Chapel Wood, Longfield house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +41.5% between 2013 and 2025. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -0.8%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Chapel Wood, Longfield house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £324,000, set in 2021. 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 Chapel Wood, Longfield?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 1 Dec 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.
