With the 45th London Marathon set for Sunday, 27th April, and over 56,000 runners preparing to hit the 26.2-mile course, Foxtons analysed Land Registry data to explore average sold prices along the route—covering 15 different London postcodes.
Start Line: £533,500 in Blackheath (SE3)
The race begins in Blackheath (SE3), where homes have sold for an average of £533,500 over the past year.
Most Affordable Points Along the Route
Mile 3 – Woolwich (SE18): £428,500
Miles 7 & 8 – Greenwich/Deptford (SE8): £445,644
Mile 22 – Shadwell (E1): £466,500
These areas offer the most budget-friendly opportunities to buy along the marathon’s path.
Finish Line: £1.5 Million in SW1A (The Mall)
At the opposite end, the prestigious SW1A postcode—home to The Mall and the marathon’s finish line—tops the chart with an average sold price of £1.5 million over the last year, nearly £1m more than Blackheath.
“The London Marathon beautifully showcases the diversity of London—its people, its neighbourhoods, and its housing market," says Foxtons chief sales officer, Jean Jameson.
"From leafy Blackheath to iconic landmarks like Tower Hill and The Mall, the route passes through areas of varying character and affordability. For buyers, there are still accessible options along the way, without the premium price tag of the finish line.”
