Aylsham’s property market at the end of September 2026 is a small, tightly held one. Just 5 properties are currently listed for sale, with 2 already sold subject to contract and 3 still actively available. That 40.0% SSTC rate, set against an average of 112 days on market, describes a market that is moving, if modestly, within a very limited pool of stock.
The average asking price across the current listings is £1,280,000, with prices ranging from £1,150,000 to £1,375,000. That places Aylsham’s live listings firmly in the premium bracket, well above the Norfolk county average of £857,678. The market is officially classed as a Balanced Market at this snapshot, meaning neither buyers nor sellers hold a decisive structural advantage, though with only 5 homes on the market, any single sale or withdrawal can shift that balance quickly.
The clearest trend in Aylsham’s current data is the disconnect between asking prices and recent completed transactions. The 5 live listings average £1,280,000, while the most recent Land Registry sales, completed between 31 July and 7 August 2026, ranged from £252,000 to £462,000. This is not a contradiction so much as a reflection of what has come to market this particular month: a small cluster of higher value homes sitting alongside a longer run of more typical town sales already completed.
Momentum, measured by the 40.0% SSTC rate, suggests buyer interest is present but selective. With only 3 properties still actively available, the pace of 112 days on market should be read against a very small base, rather than as a trend line with statistical weight.
Aylsham sits in Balanced Market territory at this snapshot, a classification borne out by the figures: 2 of 5 current listings have gone to SSTC, leaving 3 still open for offers. Neither a seller’s squeeze nor a buyer’s glut is evident in a pool this size. The 112 day average time to agree a sale is notably faster than the Norfolk county average of 246 days, fewer by 134 days, which argues against calling this a slow market even though stock levels are low.
With such a small number of live listings, position can shift on a single transaction. A buyer assessing conditions here should weigh the 40.0% SSTC rate against the reality that it is drawn from a pool of only 5 properties.
Momentum in Aylsham reads as stable rather than accelerating or cooling. The 40.0% SSTC rate and 112 day average time on market are consistent with a town that continues to transact at a pace quicker than the Norfolk county average of 246 days, without showing the kind of rapid conversion that would indicate a sudden surge in demand.
Because only 5 properties are currently listed, momentum here is best read property by property rather than as an aggregate trend. Two agreed sales out of five is a meaningful data point locally, but it is not a large enough sample to extrapolate a county-wide or even town-wide direction of travel with confidence.
Buyers currently have 3 active listings to consider in Aylsham, a narrow field that limits comparison shopping but also means sellers cannot assume unlimited buyer choice elsewhere in the town. The average 112 days on market gives a buyer reasonable room to negotiate on a property that has been listed for longer than that average, while a newly listed home at the lower end of the £1,150,000 to £1,375,000 range may attract firmer pricing.
Sellers can point to the 40.0% SSTC rate as evidence that correctly priced property in this town does find buyers. The practical negotiation position for both sides depends heavily on how a specific property’s days on market compares with the 112 day average, rather than on the headline SSTC figure alone.
We have found that Aylsham’s higher end, the properties currently listed between £1,150,000 and £1,375,000, tends to attract a different kind of buyer than the town’s more typical housing stock. These are often purchasers relocating from further afield, drawn to Norfolk itself, rather than local movers trading within the town.
Our experience working this corner of the market is that patience pays. With only 3 properties actively available at any one time in this bracket, the right buyer for a particular house may simply not be in the market yet, and a seller who understands that tends to negotiate from a stronger, calmer position than one expecting a quick sale.
A deeper look at Aylsham’s figures reveals two markets operating side by side within the same town. The current live listings average £1,280,000 across a tight price band of £1,150,000 to £1,375,000, a corridor of only £225,000. Meanwhile, the 6 completed Land Registry sales recorded in late July and early August 2026 averaged £340,833, with individual prices from £252,000 up to £462,000.
This gap matters for anyone trying to value a property in Aylsham today. The completed sales, split 3 Detached, 2 Semi-Detached and 1 Terraced, represent the town’s everyday transaction volume. The current asking prices represent a much smaller, higher value segment that has recently come to market. Treating the £1,280,000 average as representative of Aylsham generally would significantly overstate what a typical Aylsham home has actually sold for in recent weeks.
Buying in Aylsham right now means working with a genuinely small pool: 5 properties listed, 2 already under offer, leaving 3 to view and consider. That scarcity cuts both ways. There is less to compare against, but a buyer who is ready to act is not competing with dozens of other viewings on the same house.
The 112 day average time on market gives useful context. A property that has been listed close to or beyond that figure may have more room for negotiation than one that is brand new to the market. It is also worth looking past the current £1,150,000 to £1,375,000 asking range and checking recent completed sales, which have run considerably lower, from £252,000 to £462,000, to understand what Aylsham homes of a more typical size and type have actually changed hands for.
Our considered view of Aylsham is that it is a market best understood in two layers rather than as a single average. There is the everyday town, the terraces and semi-detached homes that make up most of its genuine transaction volume, and there is a smaller, higher value tier of larger or more individual properties that happens to dominate the current listings. Both are real, but they answer to different buyers and different timelines.
For anyone comparing areas, it is worth setting Aylsham alongside its immediate neighbours. Marsham sits close in average price, while Tuttington and Blickling each offer a different price point and pace entirely, and understanding those differences helps explain why Aylsham’s own figures sit where they do.
An investor looking at Aylsham today needs to separate two data sets. The current listings average £1,280,000, which is 49.2% above the Norfolk county average of £857,678, and sit in a narrow £1,150,000 to £1,375,000 band. The recently completed Land Registry sales tell a different story, averaging £340,833 across 6 transactions, with a type mix of 3 Detached, 2 Semi-Detached and 1 Terraced.
The town’s average days on market of 112 is fewer than the Norfolk average of 246 by 134 days, which is a genuine point in Aylsham’s favour for liquidity. However, with only 3 properties actively available at this snapshot, there is not enough current volume to draw firm conclusions about yield or capital growth trends from the live listings alone. The completed sales data is the more reliable basis for assessing realistic entry prices in this town.
The recent Land Registry completions give the clearest picture of how property type affects price in Aylsham. Detached homes, 54 Buckenham Road at £462,000, 40 Red Lion Street at £320,000 and 19 Starling Close at £326,000, averaged £369,333 across those three sales. Semi-detached properties, 75 Howard Way at £350,000 and 12 John Ogaunt Close at £252,000, averaged £301,000. The single terraced sale, 30 Buckenham Road, completed at £335,000, sitting between the two.
The current live listings, averaging £1,280,000 within a £1,150,000 to £1,375,000 range, sit well above all of these completed figures, indicating the present stock on the market represents a distinctly higher tier of property than the town’s recent typical sales.
Aylsham currently has 5 properties listed for sale. Of these, 2 have already gone sold subject to contract, leaving 3 still actively available to view and offer on. Asking prices across the current listings run from £1,150,000 to £1,375,000, with an average of £1,280,000, placing the live market firmly in the town’s higher price tier at this snapshot.
The average time these properties have spent on the market stands at 112 days, a figure that is considerably quicker than the wider Norfolk average of 246 days. With such a small number of properties involved, each one carries real weight in the overall picture, and a buyer with genuine interest should expect limited direct comparables within the town at this specific price point.
The most recent Land Registry completed sales for Aylsham, confirmed rather than agreed or under offer, show a run of transactions in late July and early August 2026. 54 Buckenham Road, a detached house, sold for £462,000 on 7 August 2026. 75 Howard Way, semi-detached, sold the same day for £350,000, as did 19 Starling Close, detached, for £326,000, and 40 Red Lion Street, also detached, for £320,000.
A week earlier, on 31 July 2026, 30 Buckenham Road, a terraced property, completed at £335,000, and 12 John Ogaunt Close, semi-detached, completed at £252,000. Across these 6 confirmed sales, the type mix was 3 Detached, 2 Semi-Detached and 1 Terraced, with prices ranging from £252,000 to £462,000.
Set against the Norfolk county average, calculated across 341 other areas in this coverage, Aylsham’s current listings stand out clearly on price. The average asking price of £1,280,000 is higher than the Norfolk average of £857,678 by £422,322, a difference of 49.2%. This reflects the specific, higher value tier of property currently listed in the town rather than the town’s typical housing stock, as the recent completed sales of £252,000 to £462,000 demonstrate.
On speed, Aylsham compares favourably. The average of 112 days on market is fewer than the Norfolk average of 246 days by 134 days, suggesting that whatever is currently listed, including at this elevated price point, is moving through the market at a notably quicker pace than the county as a whole.
Among Aylsham’s nearest markets, Marsham is the closest comparison on price, averaging £1,250,000 against Aylsham’s £1,280,000, a difference of just £30,000, though Marsham’s SSTC rate of 100.0% is notably stronger than Aylsham’s 40.0%, suggesting faster buyer commitment there at present.
Tuttington sits considerably lower, averaging £975,000, a difference of £305,000 below Aylsham, and currently shows a 0.0% SSTC rate, indicating no agreed sales among its live listings at this snapshot. Blickling is the most affordable of the three neighbours by a wide margin, averaging £362,000, a difference of £918,000 below Aylsham, with a stronger SSTC rate of 52.0%, pointing to a smaller but more actively converting market there.
Aylsham is a market town in Norfolk, and its current listings reflect a notably wide span of property types and values, from the £1,150,000 to £1,375,000 range of the live market down to the more typical £252,000 to £462,000 seen in recently completed sales. That spread speaks to a town with genuinely varied housing stock rather than a single uniform type of home.
This mix, everyday terraced and semi-detached houses alongside larger, higher value properties that occasionally come to market, is part of what gives Aylsham its broad appeal, drawing both buyers seeking a typical town property and those looking for something larger or more individual at the top end.
Selling in Aylsham at this snapshot means operating within a very small pool, just 5 properties listed, 2 of which have already gone under offer. That scarcity can work in a seller’s favour, as there is limited direct competition, but it also means a seller’s asking price will be judged against a wide range of reference points, from the current £1,150,000 to £1,375,000 listings down to the £252,000 to £462,000 recently completed sales.
The 112 day average time on market is faster than the Norfolk county figure of 246 days, which is encouraging, but a seller pricing at the top of the current range should be realistic that the pool of buyers for a £1,280,000 average priced home in Aylsham is genuinely small, and patience alongside accurate pricing will do more than urgency.
Selling or buying in Aylsham’s current small, bifurcated market rewards an agent who understands both tiers of the town, the everyday terraced and semi-detached sales that make up most completed transactions, and the smaller run of higher value properties that currently dominate the live listings. Getting the pricing conversation right depends on knowing which tier a specific property actually belongs to.
At The Ivybridge Collection, our work across Aylsham and its neighbouring parishes gives us the grounding to price a property honestly against real comparables rather than against headline averages that can mislead in a market this small.
Aylsham forms part of the active coverage area for The Ivybridge Collection, and our involvement here spans both the town’s everyday terraced and semi-detached sales and the smaller, higher value tier represented by the current listings averaging £1,280,000.
That dual perspective, built from working completed sales such as those on Buckenham Road and Howard Way alongside live listings at the top of the market, is what allows us to give sellers and buyers in Aylsham a grounded view of value rather than one based solely on a single headline figure.
The most important piece of advice we give clients in Aylsham at present is to be precise about which segment of the market they are actually comparing against. The current average of £1,280,000 describes only 5 live listings, a figure heavily shaped by the particular properties that happen to be on the market this month. The 6 recently completed Land Registry sales, ranging from £252,000 to £462,000, are a far more representative guide to what a typical Aylsham home, whether detached, semi-detached or terraced, has actually achieved.
For sellers, this means pricing against genuine comparables for your property’s type and size, not against the town’s headline average. For buyers, it means checking a property’s time on market against the 112 day average before assuming urgency on either side. Given the sums involved, particularly at the upper end of Aylsham’s current range, this is a decision that merits proper professional valuation advice rather than reliance on portal averages alone.
This Aylsham market report draws on two distinct data sources: current portal listing data for the 5 properties on the market at the snapshot date of 27 September 2026, and confirmed Land Registry completed sale records for 6 transactions in the town during late July and early August 2026. County level comparisons are calculated against the Norfolk average across 341 other areas in this coverage.
Given the small number of current listings, figures such as the 40.0% SSTC rate and 112 day average days on market should be read as accurate for this specific snapshot rather than as a long run statistical trend.
If you are considering selling a property in Aylsham, whether it fits the town’s everyday housing stock or sits closer to the higher value tier currently on the market, we can provide a grounded, evidence based valuation using both recent completed sales and current listing activity. Get in touch with our team for an honest assessment of what your property is likely to achieve in today’s conditions.
Buyers and sellers considering Aylsham alongside its neighbours will find useful context in the market reports for Marsham, which carries a similarly high average price and a notably stronger SSTC rate, Tuttington, priced some way below Aylsham with no current agreed sales, and Blickling, the most affordable of the three with a smaller but more active market. Each report sets out that area’s own pricing, SSTC rate and days on market in full.
