Luton property market

Luton sits on the edge of Bedfordshire, covering about 16 square miles.

The median asking price across the 900 homes for sale in Luton 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 £200,000 and £400,000. That is 20% below Bedfordshire. Homes that actually sold in Luton went for a median £320,000 (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 Luton is up 58% 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.

Yes: asking prices in Luton are typically lower than across Bedfordshire. The median asking price in Luton is £300,000 against £373k across Bedfordshire: 20% below Bedfordshire. 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.

Of the Luton 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 48 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 Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.
