York property market

York is in North Yorkshire, covering about 13 square miles.

The median asking price across the 607 homes for sale in York is £300,000 (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 £230,000 and £450,000. That is 14% below the UK. Homes that actually sold in York went for a median £290,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Rising over the long run, flat over the last year. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in York is up 49% over the last 10 years and broadly flat 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.
