West Ealing plays catch up as more records are broken
|
Local estate agents are pointing to increased investment in Ealing as the driver of rising property prices in the area after the latest figures showed that new record highs have been reached.
There was a new all-time high for prices in the W5 post code area during the third quarter of this year with the average price reaching £530,652 according to the Land Registry. Prices are up 16.2% over last 12 months in W5.
West Ealing also saw strong rises with the average price reaching £461,192 in W13.
West Ealing saw sales rise by 43% over the previous quarter with 123 properties changing hands in the three month period to the end of September. Prices were also up strongly over last quarter but not an all-time high - that was achieved in the same period last year.
Over 5 years W5 and W13 property prices are up 18.7% and 17.6% respectively.
Paul Connolly, Managing Director of Orchards of London said, "Ealing overall has been heavily invested in which naturally has a ripple effect. Dickens Yard which houses luxury apartments and boutiques throughout not to mention Wagamama that is opening its doors to the public on 20 December whilst Pret A Manger took an exclusive corner in Ealing Broadway more than six months ago. Several other restaurants have also opened up in close proximity. Fabulous Boutique Hotel Xanadu also had their exclusive launch in November. I believe this is just the start of things to come!"
For England and Wales as a whole the House Price Index shows an annual price increase of 0.9% which takes the average property value in England and Wales to £161,777.

The September data from Land Registry's flagship House Price Index shows an annual price increase nationally of 1.1 per cent which takes the average property value in England and Wales to £162,561.
