Hulme property market: common questions

Where is Hulme?

Hulme is in central Manchester, in Greater Manchester. Figures for Hulme cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.

What is the average house price in Hulme?

The median asking price across the 218 homes for sale in Hulme is £272,500 (as of 20 August 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 £189,963 and £393,750. That is 9% above Manchester. Homes that actually sold in Hulme went for a median £230,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to December 2025).

How many homes are for sale in Hulme?

218 homes are on the market in Hulme right now, 48 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 Hulme?

29 listings in Hulme had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 13% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Hulme?

Of the Hulme 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 54 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 Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.

What is the price per square foot in Hulme?

In Hulme, homes that sold went for a median £298 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £376 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (218 in Hulme), refreshed daily, as of 20 August 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Hulme cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
  • 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 Hulme since December 2025.
  • Manchester comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Manchester, 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 for the 12 months to December 2025 (the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered), with floor areas from EPC certificates. England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
