Cambridge property market

Cambridge is in Cambridgeshire, covering about 15 square miles.

The median asking price across the 789 homes for sale in Cambridge is £425,000 (as of 5 October 2026). We quote the median (the middle listing) rather than a mean, because a handful of very expensive homes would pull a mean upwards. Half of listings ask between £300,000 and £600,000. That is 21% above the UK. Homes that actually sold in Cambridge went for a median £475,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).

Rising over the long run, flat over the last year. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Cambridge is up 22% over the last 10 years and broadly flat over the last 12 months (12 months to February 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

No: asking prices in Cambridge are typically higher than across the UK. The median asking price in Cambridge is £425,000 against £350k across the UK: 21% above the UK. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The premium holds from the lower end to the top of the market.
