Postwick’s sale market currently runs to 115 properties, priced from £200,000 up to £1,250,000 with an average asking figure of £524,500. Of that total, 110 homes remain actively marketed while 5 have moved to sold subject to contract, giving an SSTC rate of 25.0%. The average time a property sits on the market here is 338 days, and at the current rate of sales that translates into 11.1 months of inventory, a figure that points to a village where supply is running well ahead of the pace at which homes are actually completing.
This is not a market defined by a single price point. A £1,050,000 spread between the cheapest and most expensive homes for sale means Postwick’s figures cover everything from modest terraced and semi-detached stock through to substantial detached houses, and that breadth matters as much as the headline average when judging what any individual property is likely to achieve.

The clearest signal in Postwick’s current figures is the gap between listings and completions. With only 5 of 115 properties marked SSTC, a 25.0% conversion rate, and an average marketing period of 338 days, homes here are taking longer to sell than a quick glance at the average price might suggest. That said, 338 days is 53 days fewer than the Norfolk average of 391 days, so while the pace feels slow in isolation, it is not out of step with the wider county.
The comparable listings show that pace varies sharply by property. Long Lane in Strumpshaw was listed just 1 day ago and Station New Road in Brundall only 8 days ago, both still actively for sale, while East Avenue in Brundall took 135 days to reach sold subject to contract, the only property in this sample to do so. That range, from properties barely on the market to one that took over four months to convert, is a better guide to real momentum than the headline average alone.
With 11.1 months of inventory sitting against a 25.0% SSTC rate, Postwick currently favours buyers more than sellers. Only a quarter of the properties on the market have progressed to sold subject to contract, and the remaining 110 active listings represent a substantial pool of choice for anyone house-hunting in the area.
This is not an area where sellers can expect to set a price and see immediate competition for it. The 338-day average time on market reinforces that buyers currently have room to shop around, compare the wide £200,000 to £1,250,000 price spread, and negotiate accordingly, particularly on stock that has been listed for longer than the comparable examples showing 8, 22 or 39 days on market.
Momentum in Postwick reads as measured rather than accelerating or stalling. The average 338 days on market is meaningfully faster than the Norfolk county figure of 391 days, which suggests the village is not simply drifting with a slow county-wide backdrop, it is performing slightly better than that backdrop even while individual sales still take time to conclude.
The comparable listings illustrate this unevenness well. Several properties, including Station New Road at 8 days and Long Lane at 1 day, have only just come to market and have plenty of runway ahead of them, while East Avenue’s 135 days to SSTC shows that even successful outcomes here can take a considerable stretch of patience. Taken together, this points to a market that is stable and functioning, but not one moving at pace.
Buyers currently hold the stronger hand in Postwick. An SSTC rate of 25.0% against 110 active listings, combined with 11.1 months of inventory, means there is no shortage of alternative stock for a buyer to point to during negotiation. Sellers whose homes have already been listed for a period comparable to, or beyond, the 338-day average should expect and be prepared for offers below asking.
That leverage is not uniform, however. Properties generating quick interest, such as those on the market for under two weeks, are less likely to attract deep discounts, and a genuinely well-priced home in a strong condition can still move faster than the average implies. The wide £200,000 to £1,250,000 price range in play means each negotiation should be grounded in the specific comparable evidence for that property’s type and price bracket, rather than the village-wide average alone.
Our team has watched Palgrave Road and Turner Crescent do most of the heavy lifting on Postwick’s recent transaction record, and the two streets tell quite different stories. Palgrave Road has produced detached sales from £335,000 up to £550,000 within a matter of months, while Turner Crescent’s semi-detached stock has changed hands at £135,000 and £182,000. That is not a contradiction, it is simply what a village with a genuinely mixed housing stock looks like when you follow the actual completed sales rather than the average alone.
What strikes us most working in this part of Norfolk is how much the wider £200,000 to £1,250,000 asking range on Postwick’s current listings depends on buyers understanding which street, and which property type, they are really comparing against. A detached house priced against the village average without reference to what is actually selling on Palgrave Road, or what the semi-detached stock on Turner Crescent has achieved, risks being priced on the wrong basis entirely.
Postwick’s average asking price of £524,500 sits 38.8% above the Norfolk county average of £377,884, a premium of £146,616. That gap is worth interrogating rather than simply quoting, because it is driven heavily by the 70% share of detached houses among the 20 comparable listings analysed, several of which are priced well above £1,000,000, including Fig Tree House and Long Lane, both listed at £1,250,000.
The Land Registry record for Postwick itself tells a more grounded story. The six most recent completed sales range from £135,000 for a semi-detached property on Turner Crescent to £550,000 for a detached house on Palgrave Road, all transacting between April and September 2025. That £415,000 spread across genuinely completed sales, set against an on-market average asking price of £524,500 and a top end of £1,250,000 among current listings, indicates that the highest asking prices in the village’s current stock sit well above anything that has recently completed on record, a gap buyers and sellers alike should factor into their expectations.
Buying in Postwick at present means accepting that patience is part of the process. With 11.1 months of inventory and an average marketing period of 338 days, there is little pressure to rush a decision, and the 110 active listings give genuine room to compare properties before committing. That said, some homes have come to market only very recently, Station New Road within the last 8 days and Long Lane just 1 day ago, so being ready to act on well-priced, well-presented stock still matters, even though neither has yet reached sold subject to contract.
It is worth treating the current comparable listings, which run from £450,000 for a four-bedroom detached house on Willow Close up to £1,250,000 for equivalent-sized homes elsewhere, as one input alongside the completed Land Registry sales on Palgrave Road and Turner Crescent, which have closed at figures from £135,000 to £550,000. A buyer relying on asking prices alone, without checking what has actually completed nearby, risks a distorted sense of where the real market sits.
Our considered view of Postwick is that it rewards buyers and sellers who look past the village-wide average and think street by street. A £524,500 average price masks a market where Turner Crescent’s semi-detached homes have completed at £135,000 and £182,000 while Palgrave Road’s detached stock has reached £550,000, and treating those as points on the same curve rather than two distinct micro-markets does nobody any favours.
We would also flag that a 25.0% SSTC rate and 338 days of average marketing time are not a sign of a struggling area, they are a sign of a village where the current asking price range, stretching to £1,250,000, is testing what the local buyer pool will actually pay. Vendors who price against genuine completed evidence, rather than the highest comparable on the road, tend to have a smoother experience here.
For an investor weighing Postwick, the average asking price stands at £524,500 against a current market of 115 listings, only 5 of which are SSTC, an SSTC rate of 25.0%. At 11.1 months of inventory and 338 days of average time on market, this is not a fast-turnover environment, and any acquisition strategy here should be built around holding periods and pricing discipline rather than rapid resale assumptions.
The Land Registry evidence for Postwick specifically shows completed sales ranging from £135,000 for semi-detached stock on Turner Crescent to £550,000 for detached property on Palgrave Road, all within the last twelve months to September 2025, giving a real-world entry-price benchmark that sits considerably below the current asking average. Rental yield and demand data for the area is not available in this report, so any income-return calculation should be built on separately sourced lettings evidence rather than the sales figures presented here.
Detached houses dominate Postwick’s current comparable listings, accounting for 70% (14 of 20) against 15% (3 of 20) each for terraced and semi-detached houses. That skew is visible in the current on-market examples, where detached properties range from £450,000 on Willow Close through to £1,250,000 at both Fig Tree House and Long Lane, and it explains a meaningful share of why the village’s average asking price of £524,500 sits above the wider Norfolk figure.
The completed Land Registry sales tell a different story for the smaller property types. Semi-detached homes on Turner Crescent and Palgrave Road have sold at £135,000, £182,000, £280,250 and £290,000, all considerably below the detached sales of £335,000 and £550,000 recorded on Palgrave Road over the same period. No terraced sale appears in the recent Land Registry data despite terraced houses making up 15% of the comparable listing mix, so buyers and sellers of that property type should treat current asking prices as the main available guide until further completed transactions are recorded.
Among the current comparable listings in the Postwick area, Willow Close in Brundall NR13 5PZ offers a four-bedroom detached house at £450,000, having been on the market for 22 days. Station New Road, also in Brundall NR13 5PQ, is a six-bedroom detached house listed at £1,100,000 and only 8 days into its marketing period.
At the top of the current range sit Fig Tree House on Strumpshaw Road, Brundall NR13 5PA, a four-bedroom detached house at £1,250,000 after 43 days on the market, and Long Lane in Strumpshaw NR13 4HY, also a four-bedroom detached house at £1,250,000 but listed just 1 day ago. Strumpshaw Road itself, Brundall NR13 5PG, offers a five-bedroom detached house at £1,200,000 after 39 days. The one property in this sample already sold subject to contract is East Avenue, Brundall NR13 5PB, a five-bedroom detached house at £650,000 that took 135 days to reach that stage.
Land Registry records for Postwick show six completed sales over recent months. On Palgrave Road, a detached house at number 37 sold for £550,000 on 26 September 2025, a detached house at number 54 sold for £335,000 on 6 June 2025, a semi-detached house at number 44 sold for £290,000 on 29 May 2025, and a semi-detached house at number 20 sold for £280,250 on 30 April 2025.
On Turner Crescent, a semi-detached house at number 28 sold for £182,000 on 23 July 2025, and a semi-detached house at number 7 sold for £135,000 on 29 July 2025. These are genuinely completed transactions rather than current asking prices, and together they show detached sales on Palgrave Road running well above the semi-detached sales recorded on both Palgrave Road and Turner Crescent.
Postwick’s average asking price of £524,500 stands £146,616 above the Norfolk county average of £377,884, a premium of 38.8%. That is a substantial gap, and it is consistent with a village whose current comparable listings are dominated, 70% of them, by detached houses priced well into six figures and beyond.
On timing, Postwick actually performs somewhat better than the county as a whole. The village’s average of 338 days on market compares to a Norfolk average of 391 days, 53 days longer, which means that despite Postwick’s higher price point, homes here are not taking longer to sell than the typical Norfolk property, they are in fact moving slightly faster.
Set against its closest neighbours, Postwick’s average price of £524,500 sits above Blofield, where the average is £331,400, a difference of £193,100, and modestly above Surlingham, where the average of £546,000 is only £21,500 apart from Postwick’s own figure. Rockland St Mary runs the other way, with an average of £607,000, £82,500 above Postwick.
The SSTC rates highlight a different pattern. Blofield’s 43.0% SSTC rate and Rockland St Mary’s 30.0% both run ahead of Postwick’s 25.0%, while Surlingham, at 15.0%, converts listings to SSTC more slowly than any of the four. Postwick, in other words, sits in the middle of this small cluster on price and conversion pace alike, neither the cheapest nor the most expensive, neither the quickest nor the slowest moving.
Postwick’s identity is bound up with its position on the eastern edge of Norwich, where the village meets the A47 interchange and the park and ride site that many Norwich commuters use daily. That location gives Postwick a slightly unusual character for a Norfolk village, genuinely rural in feel once you’re away from the main road, but only minutes from the ring road and the city centre beyond it.
The housing stock reflects that dual identity too. Streets like Palgrave Road and Turner Crescent carry a mix of modest semi-detached homes and larger detached properties, and the village retains the scale and pace of somewhere well away from a city, with the Yare valley and the wider Broads landscape close at hand for anyone who wants riverside walking without a long drive to reach it.
Selling in Postwick right now means planning for a marketing period that can run close to the village’s 338-day average, and pricing with that timeline in mind from the outset. With 110 homes currently competing for buyer attention and only 5 having reached SSTC, standing out among a crowded field matters more than it might in a faster-moving market.
The completed sales evidence on Palgrave Road and Turner Crescent, ranging from £135,000 to £550,000, is the most reliable guide to what buyers are actually willing to pay, and vendors who anchor their asking price to that evidence, rather than to the highest current listing on the street, tend to generate more genuine interest. Given that 11.1 months of inventory currently sits unsold, realistic pricing from day one is the single biggest factor within a seller’s control.
Selling or buying in Postwick benefits from an agent who tracks the difference between what a property is listed at and what actually completes here. Knowing that Turner Crescent’s semi-detached stock has sold at £135,000 and £182,000, while Palgrave Road’s detached houses have reached £550,000, is the kind of street-level detail that shapes a realistic valuation rather than an optimistic one.
The Ivybridge Collection works this area with that granularity in mind, weighing the current 115 listings and 25.0% SSTC rate against the genuine completed transaction record rather than relying on the village average alone. That approach matters most in a market where 11.1 months of inventory means a poorly judged asking price can sit unsold for far longer than a vendor would like.
The Ivybridge Collection maintains an active watch on Postwick’s market alongside the neighbouring villages we cover across this stretch of Norfolk, tracking listings, SSTC activity and completed Land Registry sales as they happen rather than relying on stale averages. For anyone weighing a move in or out of Postwick, our team can talk through the current 115 listings and the completed sales record on Palgrave Road and Turner Crescent in specific, current detail.
As part of The Ivybridge Collection‘s wider Norfolk and Suffolk coverage, our presence here means local knowledge is backed by the same rigour we apply to every area we report on.
Anyone pricing or offering on a Postwick property should treat the village’s £524,500 average asking price as a starting reference point rather than a target figure. Given that completed sales on record range from £135,000 to £550,000, and that the current market shows 11.1 months of inventory with only a 25.0% SSTC rate, professional valuation advice should be grounded in comparable evidence for the specific property type and street, not the headline average.
Sellers should also be realistic about timeframes. An average of 338 days on market is a genuine planning figure, not a worst case, and building a marketing and pricing strategy around that expectation, with room for review if a property has not attracted serious interest within a comparable period to the examples cited here, gives the best chance of a satisfactory outcome. Buyers, in turn, should request up-to-date sold price evidence for the specific street before making an offer, since asking prices in this market can sit well above what has recently completed.
The figures in this report reflect Postwick’s property market as recorded on 1 August 2026, drawing on 115 current listings, the 20 comparable properties analysed for property type mix, six recent Land Registry completed sales, and comparative data for Blofield, Surlingham and Rockland St Mary alongside the Norfolk county average across 340 other areas in our coverage.
Because it combines live listing data with completed Land Registry transactions, this report distinguishes clearly between what is currently for sale, what is under offer, and what has actually sold, so readers can judge asking prices against genuine transaction evidence rather than aspiration alone.
