How Felstead Road, Orpington prices moved

The chart tracks the median Felstead Road, Orpington 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.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Felstead Road, Orpington is £760,000 in 2025; the lowest is £94,250 in 1996. Across the full 31-year record the cash median has moved from £127,000 to £760,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £282,000, so the real change over the whole record is +175.4% — about +3.43% 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: +73.3% in cash against +25.6% 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.

Ownership and new build in Felstead Road, Orpington

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 181 freehold — 0.0% 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.

A further 6 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 Bromley at £1,678 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,306 for a one-bedroom home and £1,982 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £320,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.29% 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 BR6, 160 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 31 violent, 10 burglary, 19 vehicle-related and 29 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.

Against the 329,992 residents the 2021 census counted in Bromley, that is 0.48 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

Felstead Road, Orpington sits in Bromley, in London.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Bromley at 12.1 times median local earnings of £43,474 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.

£4,652 per square metre, from the 37 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.
