The same life, one postcode cheaper

Hampton (TW12 3) and East Molesey (KT8 1) sit about 2.23 km apart, share the same dominant housing (terraced, typically built around 1979), comparable good-school catchments and the same level of station access. Yet an equivalent home works out roughly 19% (about £120,060 on a 90 m² property) cheaper in East Molesey. On the measures that move price they are near-identical; the gap is mostly the premium attached to the better-known name.

How we worked this out

Postcode sectors (e.g. N10 3) compared on estimated £/m² of floor space. A pair is only called a 'twin' when the two sectors share the dominant property type, build era (±30y), good-school catchment provision, station access, deprivation/tenure, education, age and home size, so the price gap reflects a name premium, not a different kind of area. Estimates, not valuations; aggregated to sector, never address-level.
