North Finchley property market: common questions

Where is North Finchley?

What is the average house price in North Finchley?

The median asking price across the 270 homes for sale in North Finchley is £457,500 (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 £342,500 and £725,000. That is 19% below London. Homes that actually sold in North Finchley went for a median £475,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Is North Finchley cheaper than London?

Yes: asking prices in North Finchley are typically lower than across London. The median asking price in North Finchley is £457,500 against £565k across London: 19% below London.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (270 in North Finchley), refreshed daily, as of 4 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for North Finchley cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
  • 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 North Finchley since February 2026.
  • 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.
