Sprowston property market: common questions

Where is Sprowston?

Sprowston is about 2 miles north-east of central Norwich, in Norfolk.

What is the average house price in Sprowston?

The median asking price across the 81 homes for sale in Sprowston 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 £240,000 and £350,000. That is 20% above Norwich. Homes that actually sold in Sprowston went for a median £275,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Are house prices in Sprowston rising or falling?

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Sprowston is up 41% over the last 10 years and up 4% over the last 12 months (12 months to January 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Sprowston cheaper than Norwich?

No: asking prices in Sprowston are typically higher than across Norwich. The median asking price in Sprowston is £300,000 against £250k across Norwich: 20% above Norwich. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The premium holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How many homes are for sale in Sprowston?

81 homes are on the market in Sprowston right now, down 9% since 1 Sept, 27 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 Sprowston?

22 listings in Sprowston had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 27% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Sprowston?

Of the Sprowston 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 66 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 Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.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 is a three-bedroom house in Sprowston?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Sprowston is detached houses, at a median asking price of £345,000 across 12 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Sprowston?

In Sprowston, homes that sold went for a median £306 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £295 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (81 in Sprowston), 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 Sprowston since March 2026.
  • Norwich comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Norwich, 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 January 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to July 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.
