Woolston property market: common questions
Where is Woolston?
Woolston is about 2 miles south-east of central Southampton, in Hampshire. Figures for Woolston 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 Woolston?
The median asking price across the 93 homes for sale in Woolston is £220,000 (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 £160,000 and £325,000. That is in line with Southampton. Homes that actually sold in Woolston went for a median £261,502 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).
Are house prices in Woolston rising or falling?
Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Woolston is up 53% over the last 10 years and up 6% 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.

How much do flats and houses cost in Woolston?
The median asking price for a flat in Woolston is £170,000. 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 semi-detached houses, at a median £307,500 across 14 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 (93 in Woolston), refreshed daily, as of 4 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Woolston 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 Woolston since April 2026.
- Southampton comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Southampton, 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.
