There were marked regional differences in prices for prime properties. In Hyde Park and Notting Hill prices fell by 7.5 per cent and 5.3 per cent respectively, but in Islington, prices went up by 3.6 per cent.
"Stamp duty remains a decidedly bigger influence on the market than the EU referendum and in some instances the uncertainty surrounding Brexit has been a catalyst for overdue price reductions," said Tom Bill, head of residential research at Knight Frank.
