Comment on this story on the

The average price of a property sold in Brentford in the last three months of 2016 has tumbled as buyer interest moved to the west of the area.

The fall is probably not reflective of a general fall in prices but rather it is caused by cheaper flats to the west of Boston Manor Road being marketed more heavily than the more expensive ones in the Kew Bridge area. These riverside flats drove up the average price in the TW8 post code area earlier in 2016 when they made up nearly 80% of sales. More recently they have comprised under half of the transaction in the area.

At the same time the number of houses changing hands has also drop with just 8 being sold in the last three months of the year.

The average price in TW8 in the fourth quarter of 2016 fell to £411,664 having reached over £600,000 earlier in the year.
