Camberwell property market: common questions

Where is Camberwell?

Camberwell sits in south-east London, mostly in Southwark, about 2 miles from the centre.

What is the average house price in Camberwell?

The median asking price across the 623 homes for sale in Camberwell is £475,000 (as of 5 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 £372,500 and £625,000. That is 17% below London. Homes that actually sold in Camberwell went for a median £525,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).

Are house prices in Camberwell rising or falling?

Rising over the long run, flat over the last year. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Camberwell is up 17% over the last 10 years and broadly flat over the last 12 months (12 months to February 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Camberwell cheaper than London?

Yes: asking prices in Camberwell are typically lower than across London. The median asking price in Camberwell is £475,000 against £575k across London: 17% below London. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The saving holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How many homes are for sale in Camberwell?

623 homes are on the market in Camberwell right now, down 13% since 1 Sept, 235 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 Camberwell?

79 listings in Camberwell had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 13% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Camberwell?

Of the Camberwell 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 96 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 Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.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 Camberwell?

The median asking price for a flat in Camberwell is £445,000. 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 £875,000 across 68 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Camberwell?

The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Camberwell is £480,000, across 243 current listings.

How much is a three-bedroom house in Camberwell?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Camberwell is terraced houses, at a median asking price of £900,000 across 18 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Camberwell?

In Camberwell, homes that sold went for a median £701 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £646 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (623 in Camberwell), refreshed daily, as of 5 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 Camberwell since November 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 February 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to August 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.
