Battersea property market: common questions

Where is Battersea?

Battersea sits in south-west London, mostly in Wandsworth, about 3 miles from the centre.

What is the average house price in Battersea?

The median asking price across the 1,898 homes for sale in Battersea is £700,000 (as of 4 October 2026). We quote the median (the middle listing) rather than a mean, because a handful of very expensive homes would pull a mean upwards. Half of listings ask between £500,000 and £1,050,000. That is 24% above London. Homes that actually sold in Battersea went for a median £665,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Are house prices in Battersea rising or falling?

Rising over the long run, but falling over the last year. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Battersea is up 8% over the last 10 years and down 4% over the last 12 months (12 months to January 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Battersea cheaper than London?

No: asking prices in Battersea are typically higher than across London. The median asking price in Battersea is £700,000 against £565k across London: 24% above London. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The premium holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How many homes are for sale in Battersea?

1,898 homes are on the market in Battersea right now, broadly unchanged since 31 Aug, 373 of them listed in the last 30 days. Perch counts every listing it tracks across estate agents and portals, refreshed daily.

Are house prices being cut in Battersea?

230 listings in Battersea had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 12% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Battersea?

Of the Battersea listings that came off the market in the last 30 days and that we first saw after we began tracking the area, the typical one had been advertised for 104 days. Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.

How much do flats and houses cost in Battersea?

The median asking price for a flat in Battersea is £675,000. Houses are quoted by type rather than as one figure, because the mix moves the number more than the market does: the largest group on the market is terraced houses, at a median £1,200,000 across 111 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Battersea?

The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Battersea is £750,000, across 844 current listings.

How much is a three-bedroom house in Battersea?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Battersea is terraced houses, at a median asking price of £950,000 across 27 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Battersea?

In Battersea, homes that sold went for a median £819 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £894 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (1,898 in Battersea), refreshed daily, as of 4 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings.
  • Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Battersea since August 2025.
  • London comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of London, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
  • Sold figures: HM Land Registry price paid data. Sold prices and sales counts cover the 12 months to January 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to July 2026, with floor areas from EPC certificates (the two run on different pipelines, and the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered). England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
