About the Chelmsford market

Chelmsford has seen 3,921 recorded property sales in the last two years, with prices typically settling around £400k. The mix of homes changing hands is dominated by detached, which shapes both asking and achieved prices across the area.

Sold price data on this page comes directly from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data and covers every registered residential transaction — freehold and leasehold, new build and existing homes. Because the figures reflect completed sales rather than asking prices, they are the most reliable indicator of what buyers actually paid in Chelmsford.

To understand the current market, compare the sold prices below with live asking prices on Gaffbee. If asking prices sit well above recent sold values, expect longer negotiations; if they cluster near the sold median, homes in Chelmsford are pricing to move.
