Property Market Overview — Swansea's property market has remained active over the past five years, with over 21,000 sales recorded. The median price of £180,000 sits notably below the mean of £237,865, indicating a market with both affordable entry-level stock and higher-value properties. Overall values have risen 8.7% across the five-year period, though recent price movement has been volatile.
Property Types and Price Differences — Semi-detached homes dominate sales volume and command a mid-range price of £197,532, while terraced properties are the most affordable mainstream option at £156,346. Detached houses are substantially more expensive at £343,814—roughly twice the price of semi-detached homes—whereas flats remain the lowest-priced segment at £147,450.
Price Trends Over Time — The market experienced a dip between 2021 and 2023, with prices falling from £245,426 to £224,750, before recovering sharply in 2024 and 2025. The most recent 12-month average of £266,772 represents a significant jump above both the five-year mean and the longer-term trend.
What Stands Out — The gap between recent activity and historical averages is striking, with prices currently running well above their five-year typical level. The range from £110,000 to £695,000 reveals a notably segmented market, with meaningful choices available across different budgets and property types.
