What is the typical rent for 2-bedroom homes in Westminster?

Rents paid in England and Wales, from Office for National Statistics. An official figure as of 31 August 2026.

An official average or median published by a statistics office or regulator, not individual sales.

£3,305 per month, average

The average monthly private rent for two-bedroom homes in Westminster was £3,305, down 0.3% on a year earlier. It averages new and existing private tenancies, so a tenancy starting today usually costs more; one published average, not a range.

One average per local authority, region or country and month: no range and no count of rents. It averages rents of all private tenancies, new and existing, so it is lower than the rent of a tenancy starting today. Local authorities, not towns or postcodes. Bedrooms and property type are published separately, never together. Official statistics in development.
Rule
A figure built from records is shown only when at least 5 records sit behind it; official statistics are shown as such, with their reference period. See how we earn trust and the method.
