Hartlepool property market: common questions
Where is Hartlepool?
Hartlepool sits on the edge of Durham, covering about 12 square miles.
What is the average house price in Hartlepool?
The median asking price across the 308 homes for sale in Hartlepool is £120,000 (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 £74,488 and £209,963. That is 27% below Durham. Homes that actually sold in Hartlepool went for a median £140,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).
Are house prices in Hartlepool rising or falling?
Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Hartlepool is up 30% over the last 10 years and up 4% 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 Hartlepool cheaper than Durham?
Yes: asking prices in Hartlepool are typically lower than across Durham. The median asking price in Hartlepool is £120,000 against £165k across Durham: 27% below Durham. 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 Hartlepool?
308 homes are on the market in Hartlepool right now, down 25% since 1 Sept, 68 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 Hartlepool?
36 listings in Hartlepool had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 12% of the homes currently for sale.
How long are homes on the market in Hartlepool?
Of the Hartlepool 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 Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.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 Hartlepool?
The median asking price for a flat in Hartlepool is £66,250. 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 terraced houses, at a median £85,000 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 Hartlepool?
The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Hartlepool is £86,475, across 24 current listings.
How much is a three-bedroom house in Hartlepool?
There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Hartlepool is terraced houses, at a median asking price of £85,000 across 61 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.
What is the price per square foot in Hartlepool?
In Hartlepool, homes that sold went for a median £155 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £124 per sq ft.
How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (308 in Hartlepool), 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 Hartlepool since February 2026.
- Durham comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Durham, 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.
