A significant sold price has landed in the Wembley data this summer, and it matters for anyone structuring brent development finance right now. According to HM Land Registry price paid data, 24 Priory Gardens, HA0 2QG sold for £1,295,000 on 19 June 2026. The same HM Land Registry record confirms the property is a detached house sold on a freehold basis.

How the price sits against the Wembley market

The headline number is worth putting in context. HM Land Registry price paid data shows the median price in Wembley is £515,000, so this transaction completed at roughly two and a half times the local median. More telling still, HM Land Registry price paid data places the sale in the top decile for HA0, where the threshold is exactly £1,295,000. In plain terms, this house sold at the very edge of the top ten per cent of the postcode.

The sample behind those figures is meaningful. HM Land Registry price paid data records 1,574 transactions in the area over the last 12 months, which is a deep enough pool for lenders and valuers to treat the decile bands as credible rather than noise.

What it means for development exits and bridging LTVs

For developers, the useful reading is on the exit side. When a detached freehold in HA0 achieves £1,295,000 against a £515,000 median, it evidences a genuine premium band in the borough for larger family stock. Specialist commercial lenders and challenger banks underwriting gross development value in Brent want exactly this kind of dated comparable: a completed sale, on the register, at the top of the local range.

On bridging, the effect is practical. Bridging specialists set loan to value against valuation evidence, and a fresh top decile comparable gives valuers firmer ground for houses in the upper band. That can be the difference between a day one advance that works and one that leaves a funding gap. Equally, the £515,000 median is a reminder that most Wembley stock trades well below this level, so appraisals built on premium exits need genuinely comparable product: detached, freehold, and in the right pocket of the postcode.
