A typical home in Enfield Highway sells for about £420,000, and the terrace is what most of that money buys. Flats go for about a quarter of a million. Semis cost a little more than terraces. Detached houses hardly come up for sale at all. The market has barely moved in a year, and flats have slipped a bit.
The Land Registry recorded 209 sales in the year to May 2026, at a median of £420,000. Terraces made up the bulk of them, 107 sales at a median of about £434,000. Flats came next with 58 sales at about £250,000, then semis with 34 at about £454,000. Only ten detached houses sold, at a median of £530,000. With a terrace and a semi priced that close, what a buyer is mostly choosing between is one shared wall or two.
The official house price index for the area put the average change at minus 0.7% over the year to May 2026, which is small enough to be noise. Flats did worse, down 3.5% over the same year. Those are published changes for the whole index area, and they say what happened last year, not what the next one holds. For anyone buying a flat, the lease length and the service charge are worth getting in writing early, because a softer flat market is where those two numbers start to matter at resale.
Band D is the most common council-tax band here, and 19% of homes fall in bands A or B. A band D home in Enfield pays about £2,270 a year. That is the bill most buyers will be comparing with their own.
Typical private rent across the London Borough of Enfield is about £1,780 a month as of April 2026, up 4% on the year before. That is a mean from the Office for National Statistics rental index, not a median of advertised listings, and it covers the whole borough, not this neighbourhood alone. By size, the borough averages about £1,380 for one bedroom, £1,710 for two, £2,030 for three and £2,740 for four or more. Renting a three-bedroom house costs about as much each month as a mortgage, and the landlords who own the terraces know it.
Against those prices, the Office for National Statistics models gross household income here, before tax, at about £62,000 for the financial year to March 2023. That figure is a few years old and it is an area average, not anyone's payslip. Next to a £420,000 median it makes a terrace a real stretch on one household's earnings. A flat at about £250,000 is the price most people here could reach.
Of the sales that can be matched to an energy certificate's floor area, which is 88% of them, the median price was about £5,100 per square metre over the same year. The typical home behind that figure is about 82 square metres. Anyone used to London prices will find that figure modest. Anyone who has seen a London floor plan will recognise the 82.
At the 2021 Census, 15% of homes here had one bedroom, 28% had two, 43% had three and 13% had four or more. The three-bedroom house is the local standard, and at 82 square metres those three bedrooms are not big ones.
Prices in Enfield Highway are middling: a flat is within reach on a local income, a terrace takes some stretching, and the market has spent the past year almost standing still.
