Doncaster property market: common questions

Where is Doncaster?

Doncaster is in South Yorkshire, covering about 12 square miles.

What is the average house price in Doncaster?

The median asking price across the 381 homes for sale in Doncaster is £190,000 (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 £130,000 and £280,000. That is 46% below the UK. Homes that actually sold in Doncaster went for a median £175,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).

Are house prices in Doncaster rising or falling?

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Doncaster is up 50% over the last 10 years and up 3% 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.

Is Doncaster cheaper than the UK?

Yes: asking prices in Doncaster are typically lower than across the UK. The median asking price in Doncaster is £190,000 against £350k across the UK: 46% below the UK. 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 many homes are for sale in Doncaster?

381 homes are on the market in Doncaster right now, down 14% since 1 Sept, 85 of them listed in the last 30 days. Perch counts every listing it tracks across estate agents and portals, refreshed daily.

Are house prices being cut in Doncaster?

66 listings in Doncaster had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 17% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Doncaster?

Of the Doncaster listings that came off the market in the last 30 days and that we first saw after we began tracking the area, the typical one had been advertised for 68 days. Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.

How much do flats and houses cost in Doncaster?

The median asking price for a flat in Doncaster is £97,000. 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 £189,500 across 122 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Doncaster?

The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Doncaster is £104,000, across 35 current listings.

How much is a three-bedroom house in Doncaster?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Doncaster is semi-detached houses, at a median asking price of £185,000 across 86 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Doncaster?

In Doncaster, homes that sold went for a median £194 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £186 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (381 in Doncaster), refreshed daily, as of 5 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 Doncaster since March 2026.
  • UK comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of UK, 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 February 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to August 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.
