Crewe property market: common questions

Where is Crewe?

Crewe is in Cheshire, covering about 9 square miles.

What is the average house price in Crewe?

The median asking price across the 357 homes for sale in Crewe is £210,000 (as of 4 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 £140,000 and £299,950. That is 36% below Cheshire. Homes that actually sold in Crewe went for a median £186,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Are house prices in Crewe rising or falling?

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Crewe is up 60% over the last 10 years and up 9% over the last 12 months (12 months to January 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Crewe cheaper than Cheshire?

Yes: asking prices in Crewe are typically lower than across Cheshire. The median asking price in Crewe is £210,000 against £330k across Cheshire: 36% below Cheshire. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The saving holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How much do flats and houses cost in Crewe?

The median asking price for a flat in Crewe is £90,000. Houses are quoted by type rather than as one figure, because the mix moves the number more than the market does: the largest group on the market is semi-detached houses, at a median £210,000 across 108 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Crewe?

How much is a three-bedroom house in Crewe?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Crewe is semi-detached houses, at a median asking price of £210,000 across 80 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Crewe?

In Crewe, homes that sold went for a median £231 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £232 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (357 in Crewe), refreshed daily, as of 4 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings.
  • Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Crewe since May 2026.
  • Cheshire comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Cheshire, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
  • Sold figures: HM Land Registry price paid data. Sold prices and sales counts cover the 12 months to January 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to July 2026, with floor areas from EPC certificates (the two run on different pipelines, and the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered). England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
