A typical home in Harrow Weald costs about £550,000, and for that money you get interwar London with a common up the hill. Semis go for about £620,000. Flats go for about £305,000. Prices have barely moved in a year. Expensive, and very calm about it.
The Land Registry recorded 252 sales in Harrow Weald in the year to May 2026, at a median of £550,000. Semis were the bulk of the trade, with 100 sales at about £620,000. The 74 terraces sold at £550,000 and the 62 flats at £305,000. Only 16 detached houses changed hands, at around £820,000, and at that volume a single big garden sale can drag the figure around. The semi sets the going rate here, and nobody in Harrow Weald is surprised by that.
The Land Registry's house price index put the average for the index area at about £530,000 in May 2026, up 0.4% on a year earlier. That is close to no change at all. Flats did a little worse, down 2.1% over the same twelve months, so the cheaper end of the market went slightly backwards while the houses held their ground. Anyone buying a flat for the price growth has picked the one column in the table that went the wrong way.
Band D is the most common council tax band, and only about 7% of homes fall into bands A and B. Harrow Council charges about £2,510 a year for band D, which is what most households here will be paying, or close to it.
On renting, Harrow Council's area as a whole averages about £1,760 a month for a private let as of April 2026, a mean from the Office for National Statistics index, not a median of advertised listings. By size, the same borough-wide index puts one-bedroom homes at about £1,380, two bedrooms at about £1,700, three at about £2,040 and four or more at about £2,760. No reliable figure exists for studios or single rooms, so none is given here.
The Office for National Statistics models gross household income across Harrow Weald at about £74,000 for the financial year to March 2023, which comes to about £51,000 after tax. Set against a £550,000 typical home, that makes buying a stretch for a single earner and a long mortgage even for two. The income figure is also a few years old, and wages have to move a long way to catch a house price that barely needs to.
Of the sales that can be matched to an energy certificate's floor area, which is about 86% of them, the median price was about £5,840 per square metre, for a typical home of about 97 square metres. The certificate floor area is worth checking against the particulars, because the per-metre price only means something when the metres are right. Room counts in brochures tend to be more generous than tape measures.
The 2021 census counted about 42% of Harrow Weald homes with three bedrooms, 27% with four or more, 20% with two and 12% with one. That is a family-sized stock, and the three-bedroom semi is what most buyers here end up searching for. Buyers who need only two bedrooms will be shopping in the smaller part of the market, which is mostly flats.
Harrow Weald is middling on price: not a bargain anywhere, but steady, and with its share of three-bedroom semis at a London price.
