Swindon property market: common questions

Where is Swindon?

Swindon is in Wiltshire, covering about 18 square miles.

What is the average house price in Swindon?

The median asking price across the 863 homes for sale in Swindon is £240,000 (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 £161,250 and £340,000. That is 29% below Wiltshire. Homes that actually sold in Swindon went for a median £265,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Are house prices in Swindon rising or falling?

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Swindon is up 58% 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 Swindon cheaper than Wiltshire?

Yes: asking prices in Swindon are typically lower than across Wiltshire. The median asking price in Swindon is £240,000 against £340k across Wiltshire: 29% below Wiltshire. 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 Swindon?

The median asking price for a flat in Swindon is £135,000. 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 £230,000 across 259 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Swindon?

The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Swindon is £145,000, across 136 current listings.

How much is a three-bedroom house in Swindon?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Swindon is terraced houses, at a median asking price of £250,000 across 106 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Swindon?

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (863 in Swindon), 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 Swindon since May 2026.
  • Wiltshire comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Wiltshire, 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.
