The average property in Camden sold for £983,691 over the past year, down 7% on the year before and 21% below the borough's 2022 peak of £1,244,386. Flats accounted for most sales at £718,882 on average, while terraced houses around Primrose Hill and Belsize Park averaged £2,209,389 and semi-detached properties reached £3,150,000.

The gap between flat and house prices in Camden is wide enough that a family upsizing from a Kentish Town flat to a Belsize Park terrace can see their mortgage, and the life cover needed to protect it, can multiply several times over in a single move.
