Sunderland property market: common questions
Where is Sunderland?
Sunderland sits on the edge of Tyne & Wear, covering about 19 square miles.
What is the average house price in Sunderland?
The median asking price across the 549 homes for sale in Sunderland is £174,950 (as of 4 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 £99,950 and £269,950. That is 50% below the UK. Homes that actually sold in Sunderland went for a median £146,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).
Are house prices in Sunderland rising or falling?
Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Sunderland is up 34% 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 Sunderland cheaper than the UK?
Yes: asking prices in Sunderland are typically lower than across the UK. The median asking price in Sunderland is £174,950 against £350k across the UK: 50% below the UK. 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 much do flats and houses cost in Sunderland?
The median asking price for a flat in Sunderland is £80,000. Houses are quoted by type rather than as one figure, because the mix moves the number more than the market does: the largest group on the market is terraced houses, at a median £155,000 across 167 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.
How much is a two-bedroom flat in Sunderland?
The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Sunderland is £84,950, across 57 current listings.
How much is a three-bedroom house in Sunderland?
There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Sunderland is terraced houses, at a median asking price of £142,500 across 76 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.
What is the price per square foot in Sunderland?
In Sunderland, homes that sold went for a median £164 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £181 per sq ft.
How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (549 in Sunderland), refreshed daily, as of 4 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 Sunderland since May 2026.
- UK comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of UK, 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.
