How Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham prices moved

The chart tracks the median Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2002 to 2016. 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 Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham is £190,000 in 2016; the lowest is £75,000 in 2002. Across the full 15-year record the cash median has moved from £75,000 to £190,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £144,665, so the real change over the whole record is +83.4% — about +4.43% 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: +52.0% in cash against +19.2% 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.

What sells here

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

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham

92 of the sales on record are leasehold and 12 freehold — 88.5% 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 £114,000 and the median freehold sale £157,450 — a gap of +38.1%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 15 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 Croydon at £1,579 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,262 for a one-bedroom home and £1,853 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £117,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 16.19% 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 CR4, 429 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 166 violent, 23 burglary, 31 vehicle-related and 107 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.6 times busier.

Against the 390,719 residents the 2021 census counted in Croydon, that is 1.10 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 Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham

The 2021 census counted 390,719 residents in Croydon across 152,945 households. 56.1% of those households own their home and 43.7% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

18 state and independent schools have a CR4 postcode: 15 primary, 2 secondary, 1 nursery. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham sits below that national figure — -25.7%.

Within Mitcham the street ranks 318 of 343 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £173,125 (-32.4%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,628 per square metre, across 17 of the 104 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 £10,500 to £360,000. 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.

Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham sits in Croydon, in London.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Croydon at 10.6 times median local earnings of £40,033 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.

Common questions about this data

When were Phipps Bridge Road, Mitcham house prices at their highest?
