Property Market Overview — Gainsborough's residential market has processed over 3,370 sales across five years, reflecting a reasonably active local market. The median price of £172,000 sits well below the mean of £190,463, indicating that a significant portion of sales cluster at the lower end, with some higher-value transactions pulling the average up. The market has strengthened by 13% over the five-year period.
Property Types and Price Differences — Detached homes command the highest prices at £280,087, roughly three times the value of flats and more than 2.5 times the price of terraced properties. Semi-detached homes occupy the middle ground at £161,880, while terraced houses at £109,057 and flats at £89,685 form the more affordable segment. Detached properties also dominate transaction volumes with 1,297 sales, far outpacing the 80 flat sales recorded.
Price Trends Over Time — Prices dipped in 2023 to £185,410 before recovering steadily, with the most recent 12-month average reaching £222,833—notably higher than the five-year mean. This recent uplift suggests accelerating demand, though the range remains wide, from £108,000 to £335,000.
What Stands Out — The market is heavily weighted toward detached and semi-detached homes, which together account for roughly 67% of all sales. Flats remain a marginal segment with minimal transaction activity, suggesting limited appetite or availability for this property type in the area.
