Property Market Overview — Christchurch has seen substantial transaction volume over five years, with 5,492 sales recorded across all property types. The market has contracted significantly, with prices falling 31.8% from the five-year average of £472,779 to a recent 12-month average of £292,475. This represents a marked shift from the peak seen in 2022.
Property Types and Price Differences — Detached homes command the highest prices at £623,786 on average, more than double the cost of flats at £259,525. Semi-detached and terraced properties occupy the middle ground at £399,784 and £374,415 respectively, with detached sales comprising the largest share at 2,169 transactions. Flats form the second-largest segment with 1,385 sales, reflecting their affordability relative to family homes.
Price Trends Over Time — The market peaked in 2022 at £524,645 before entering a downward trend. Recent figures for 2025 and 2026 show sustained softening, with prices now trading well below the long-term mean and recent trading occurring between £185,000 and £480,000.
What Stands Out — The sharp divergence between detached home valuations and flats is particularly pronounced, with detached properties valued at roughly 2.4 times more than flats. The pronounced overall price decline over the past three years sets this market apart from its earlier performance.
