Bellsoph rental valuations are automated estimates based on advertised rental evidence and official statistics.

Market data: ONS Price Index of Private Rents and UK House Price Index, September 2026.
Local rents against Greater London
In September 2026, the average rent in Kensington and Chelsea was £3,739, compared with £2,338 across Greater London. The local average was 59.9% higher than the regional figure. This is area-level statistical context, not evidence of an advertised rent or a comparable listing.
Rents were 3.0% higher over the year. The annual rate was 0.5 percentage points lower than Greater London’s, so the higher local rent level sat alongside a lower rate of annual change.
Bedroom-size benchmarks
For a bedroom-count comparison, the September 2026 averages were £2,674 for one bed, £3,475 for two bed, £4,130 for three bed and £5,728 for four or more bed. These area averages provide a statistical reference, not like-for-like property comparables.
The largest published adjacent bedroom step was from three bed at £4,130 to four or more bed at £5,728. Annual rates varied too: three bed rents rose 3.5%, while the rate for four or more bed was 2.7%. Match the category to the property’s bedroom count when using these figures as context.
