With 2025 well and truly underway, it’s time to take stock and evaluate the Stockton Heath property market.
As we look forward to what the new year brings, we are keen to continue helping our clients navigate the Stockton Heath property market and are diligent in our aim to achieve the best possible outcome for the customer.
Let’s take a look at Stockton Heath’s property market and Edward Mellor’s place within it. This February update provides insight into buyer and seller activity, based on market trends and data from January.
The market in and around Stockton Heath is fairly robust due to the popularity of the area. The region’s convenient motorway network and proximity to Manchester and Liverpool make it a highly sought-after location for families, with people commuting into the larger cities for work.
First-time buyers have been keen to capitalise on the SDLT changes due in April, which has had knock-on effects through the sales chain. Whilst there remains a healthy level of first-time buyer interest, we are now seeing more activity in the upper price ranges as a result of them starting the chain. Activity in the £300-£500K bracket is particularly strong following some very healthy activity in the first-time buyer bracket of £125-£250k.
Following on from a strong month in December, our Stockton Heath team have hit the ground running and built on the strong foundations set by the previous year.
This month, we had 2 new instructions and 8 sales agreed, showing us that demand is high and now is an advantageous time to put your property on the market.
If you were thinking about listing your property with us then now is the perfect time to do so!

The average sale price for properties in Stockton Heath over the past 12 months is £329.764, which is a 4% increase in annual sales prices and a 23% rise in sales prices over the past 5 years**.
We are currently seeing a high number of vendors who are fairly flexible in terms of timing and there isn’t any urgency with them to be particularly aggressive with pricing. To accommodate this, we are adopting a test the market approach with the view of incorporating some flexibility and scope to reduce or negotiate, rather than a competitive strategy.
This appears to be working very well because we have seen a 65% increase in the number of sales in January compared to December.
We have a plethora of exciting success stories this month and it’s no surprise after we’ve sold 10.8% of the market*.
Here at Edward Mellor, we have a reliable bank of hot buyers who have been financially vetted to ensure we minimise our number of fall-throughs. We know our buyers and what they’re looking for. Due to the diligent work of our expert Stockton Heath team, we are able to successfully identify the best match between buyer and property and achieve a desirable outcome for our vendors.
Overall, due to our committed sales negotiators and expert valuers, we are able to assess each individual property and cater our marketing strategy to achieve the most desirable outcome for our vendors.
