Property Market Overview Cardiff's property market has experienced substantial activity over the past five years, with nearly 30,000 sales recorded. The median price sits at £255,000, though this masks considerable variation across property types. Recent prices have fallen sharply, with the last 12 months averaging £227,031—a significant drop from the peak of £385,644 in 2024.
Property Types and Price Differences Terraced homes dominate sales volume and represent the market's mid-range offering at £266,878, while flats are notably more affordable at £170,385. Detached properties command roughly double the price of terraced homes, averaging £487,194, reflecting their relative scarcity in the area.
Price Trends Over Time The five-year trend shows a sharp 28.8% decline overall. Prices rose steadily from 2021 through 2024, peaking at £385,644, before dropping dramatically through 2025 and into 2026.
What Stands Out The recent price collapse is the defining feature of this market snapshot, with current averages roughly 41% below the 2024 peak. Terraced properties and semi-detached homes together account for the majority of transactions, suggesting a market skewed toward mid-market family housing.
