Sold House Prices in Cardiff (2026)

Property Market Overview Cardiff's residential market is active and diverse, with nearly 25,000 sales recorded over five years. The median price of £260,000 sits notably below the mean of £299,324, reflecting a market where most transactions cluster at the lower end, though higher-value properties pull the average upward. The market has experienced solid growth, with prices rising 22.1% over the five-year period.

Property Types and Price Differences Terraced homes dominate activity, accounting for over a third of all sales at an average of £268,471, making them the most common choice across the city. Detached properties command roughly double the price of terraced homes at £489,417, while flats are considerably cheaper at £172,266—less than two-thirds the cost of a typical terraced house. Semi-detached homes sit in the middle at £325,761 and represent the second-largest share of transactions.

Price Trends Over Time The past five years have shown consistent upward movement, with prices climbing from £283,272 in 2021 to £304,679 in 2024. The most recent 12-month average of £300,746 suggests some moderation compared to the peak seen in early 2025 at £314,624, though prices remain well above the five-year starting point.

What Stands Out The wide spread between minimum (£155,000) and maximum (£360,000) recent prices highlights significant variation within the market, reflecting the mix of affordable flats alongside pricier detached properties. Terraced homes' strong presence—representing 36% of all sales—underscores their role as the backbone of Cardiff's residential market.
