London vs England vs Wales – Average prices for flats, detached, and terraced homes
His Majesty’s Land Registry has published the UK House Price Index for April 2025, which details the average prices for homes in London, England, and Wales.
According to the latest data, average house prices have fallen compared to the previous month, with annual growth recorded at a subdued 3.5% year-on-year – a significant decrease from the registry’s estimate of 7%.
According to the latest data, the average property in the UK is valued at £265,000.
It should be noted that the he UK House Price Index is based on completed housing transactions, which usually take six to eight weeks to complete. It is therefore important not to put too much weight on one month’s set of house price data, as these indicators vary from month to month.
Average house prices and monthly changes differ across different regions in the United Kingdom, with the latest data showing that the average price of a house in London is £567,000, an annual increase of 3.3%.
The average house price across the whole of England is much lower at £286,000, and the average price of a home in Wales is £210,000 according to the latest data.

The UK House Price Index Data includes a breakdown of the average prices for these three regions – London, England and Wales – by property type.
The data compares the average prices of detached, semi-detached, and terraced homes with flats in each region. Compared to last year, flats or maisonettes have shown the least growth in all three areas.
Detached or semi-detached homes have seen the biggest price increases over the past year, according to the April 2025 data.
