Trumpington property market: common questions

Where is Trumpington?

Trumpington is about 2 miles south of central Cambridge, in Cambridgeshire. Figures for Trumpington cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.

What is the average house price in Trumpington?

The median asking price across the 85 homes for sale in Trumpington is £400,000 (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 £282,500 and £535,000. That is 6% below Cambridge. Homes that actually sold in Trumpington went for a median £561,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Are house prices in Trumpington rising or falling?

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Trumpington is up 29% over the last 10 years and up 12% 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 Trumpington cheaper than Cambridge?

Yes: asking prices in Trumpington are typically lower than across Cambridge. The median asking price in Trumpington is £400,000 against £425k across Cambridge: 6% below Cambridge. 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 many homes are for sale in Trumpington?

85 homes are on the market in Trumpington right now, broadly unchanged since 31 Aug, 14 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 Trumpington?

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

How long are homes on the market in Trumpington?

Of the Trumpington 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 90 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 Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.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 do flats and houses cost in Trumpington?

The median asking price for a flat in Trumpington is £350,000. 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 £612,500 across 16 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Trumpington?

The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Trumpington is £385,000, across 36 current listings.

What is the price per square foot in Trumpington?

In Trumpington, homes that sold went for a median £506 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £498 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (85 in Trumpington), refreshed daily, as of 4 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Trumpington cover listings within about 1 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
  • 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 Trumpington since January 2026.
  • Cambridge comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Cambridge, 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.
