King's Cross property market: common questions
Where is King's Cross?
King's Cross sits in north London, mostly in Camden, about 2 miles from the centre.
What is the average house price in King's Cross?
The median asking price across the 496 homes for sale in King's Cross is £725,000 (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 £499,984 and £1,150,000. That is 26% above London. Homes that actually sold in King's Cross went for a median £645,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).
Are house prices in King's Cross rising or falling?
Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in King's Cross is up 9% over the last 10 years and up 8% 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 King's Cross cheaper than London?
No: asking prices in King's Cross are typically higher than across London. The median asking price in King's Cross is £725,000 against £575k across London: 26% 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.

The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (496 in King's Cross), 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 King's Cross 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 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.
