Deptford property market

Deptford sits in east London, mostly in Lewisham, about 4 miles from the centre.

The median asking price across the 331 homes for sale in Deptford is £450,000 (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 £350,000 and £550,000. That is 22% below London. Homes that actually sold in Deptford went for a median £408,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).

Rising over the long run, but falling over the last year. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Deptford is up 17% over the last 10 years and down 4% 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.

Yes: asking prices in Deptford are typically lower than across London. The median asking price in Deptford is £450,000 against £575k across London: 22% 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.
