Is W1K at risk of flooding?
None of the 878 postcodes in W1K is on the Environment Agency's list of postcodes with a home or business in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea.
Homes and businesses in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, as the Environment Agency counts them, added up over the postcodes. It is for the land, not each building, and leaves out surface water, groundwater and sewers. Each postcode page has its own figures and its flood warning areas.

What do homes sell for in W1K?
Homes in W1K sold for a typical £3,100,000 in the 12 months to September 2026, across 18 sales, HM Land Registry's figures show. The 12 months before gave £4,875,000 from 32 sales. With fewer than 30 sales a year, a change can come from which homes happened to sell, so we do not give one.

- Flat or maisonette £2,975,000 16 sales
Standard sales of homes at market value. A typical price is the median, the middle sale. Sales take weeks to be registered, so the last month or two are incomplete. Each postcode page gives the figure for its own postcode sector.
