House Prices in Abingdon, Oxfordshire

# Abingdon Property Market Summary

Abingdon's property market demonstrates considerable volatility, with average prices experiencing significant fluctuation over recent years. The market peaked dramatically in 2021 at £725,243, representing a substantial surge from pre-pandemic levels. However, this spike proved unsustainable, with values declining sharply to £545,929 in 2022 before modest recovery. Current figures for 2025 show average prices at £496,641, broadly aligned with 2024 levels (£491,291) but well below the 2021 peak. Notably, the overall portfolio average of £325,567 across 17,265 properties suggests this figure encompasses a broad historical dataset including many older, lower-priced transactions.

Transaction volumes have remained relatively robust, consistently ranging between 868 and 1,091 sales annually since 2016, indicating sustained market activity despite price volatility. The 2021 surge coincided with high transaction numbers (1,060 sales), reflecting the pandemic-driven property boom that affected much of the UK market. Abingdon's market appears to be stabilising at around the £490,000-£600,000 range, suggesting the town maintains its appeal as a desirable Oxfordshire location, though buyers should be aware of the potential for continued price adjustments following the extraordinary 2021 spike.
