The median asking price across the 624 homes for sale in South Hampstead is £1,050,000 (as of 5 October 2026).

That is 83% above London. Homes that actually sold in South Hampstead went for a median £900,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in South Hampstead is up 10% over the last 10 years and down 6% 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.
