West Kensington property market: common questions
Where is West Kensington?
West Kensington sits in west London, mostly in Hammersmith and Fulham, about 4 miles from the centre. Figures for West Kensington cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
What is the average house price in West Kensington?
The median asking price across the 726 homes for sale in West Kensington is £800,000 (as of 20 August 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 £550,000 and £1,484,250. That is 45% above London. Homes that actually sold in West Kensington went for a median £660,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to December 2025).

How long are homes on the market in West Kensington?
Of the West Kensington 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 89 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 Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.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 West Kensington?

How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (726 in West Kensington), refreshed daily, as of 20 August 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for West Kensington 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 West Kensington 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 for the 12 months to December 2025 (the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered), with floor areas from EPC certificates. England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
