Spring/Summer 2025

If you’ve been wondering what’s happening in the local property market, here’s your update: Herne Hill and Dulwich are experiencing a real surge in activity—and the numbers prove it.

🏡 Herne Hill has seen a 133.3% increase in house sales recently, driven by falling interest rates and strong demand. The average house price now stands at around £854,211, up 3% year-on-year. This growth reflects the area's increasing appeal to families, professionals, and investors alike.

🌳 Dulwich remains one of South London’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, particularly for homes in the £1m–£2m range, many of which are now under offer within weeks. With its blend of top-performing schools, beautiful parks, and excellent transport links, it continues to attract both domestic and overseas buyers.

🌍 Speaking of international interest, nearly 27% of properties sold in London last year were snapped up by foreign investors—with strong demand from Hong Kong, Singapore, the UAE, and the U.S. While Central London still sees the bulk of international attention, we’re seeing growing overseas interest in the lifestyle and rental potential of areas like SE21 and SE24. This is why bringing our Central London Database of buyers to our community has helped our Sellers - you get the best of both world.
