Kingsdown property market: common questions

Where is Kingsdown?

Kingsdown is in central Bristol. Figures for Kingsdown 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 Kingsdown?

The median asking price across the 235 homes for sale in Kingsdown is £300,000 (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 £235,000 and £375,000. That is 14% below Bristol. Homes that actually sold in Kingsdown went for a median £330,000 (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 Kingsdown is up 32% 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.

Is Kingsdown cheaper than Bristol?

Yes: asking prices in Kingsdown are typically lower than across Bristol. The median asking price in Kingsdown is £300,000 against £350k across Bristol: 14% below Bristol. 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 these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (235 in Kingsdown), refreshed daily, as of 5 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Kingsdown 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 Kingsdown since May 2026.
  • Bristol comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Bristol, 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.
