Neath property market: common questions

Where is Neath?

Neath is in West Glamorgan.

What is the average house price in Neath?

The median asking price across the 158 homes for sale in Neath is £210,000 (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 £149,000 and £293,750. That is 9% below West Glamorgan. Homes that actually sold in Neath went for a median £180,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Neath is up 57% over the last 10 years and up 6% 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 Neath cheaper than West Glamorgan?

Yes: asking prices in Neath are typically lower than across West Glamorgan. The median asking price in Neath is £210,000 against £230k across West Glamorgan: 9% below West Glamorgan. 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 (158 in Neath), 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 Neath since May 2026.
  • West Glamorgan comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of West Glamorgan, 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.
