Tamworth property market: common questions

Where is Tamworth?

Tamworth sits on the edge of Staffordshire, covering about 9 square miles.

What is the average house price in Tamworth?

The median asking price across the 335 homes for sale in Tamworth is £265,000 (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 £210,000 and £380,000. That is 5% below Staffordshire. Homes that actually sold in Tamworth went for a median £247,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Tamworth is up 65% over the last 10 years and up 10% 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 Tamworth cheaper than Staffordshire?

Yes: asking prices in Tamworth are typically lower than across Staffordshire. The median asking price in Tamworth is £265,000 against £280k across Staffordshire: 5% below Staffordshire.

How much do flats and houses cost in Tamworth?

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 detached houses, at a median £395,000 across 120 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (335 in Tamworth), 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 Tamworth since May 2026.
  • Staffordshire comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Staffordshire, 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.
