Market read
Guildford, Abbotswood (GU1) has a median sale price of £481,000 — around £5,767 for each square metre of floor area. The district is trading 22.6% below the high set in 2023. Floor area varies far more than room counts suggest: properties recorded with 12 habitable rooms — bedrooms and receptions together — range from 288 to 697 m² here. At 10.3 times median local earnings, that is a demanding ratio by any measure. Values have risen 5.3% over the past five years.

The space signal
Property listings describe homes by bedroom count, but that is not recorded in any public dataset. What is recorded is the number of habitable rooms — bedrooms and reception rooms together — and the total floor area. In Guildford, Abbotswood, homes with the same number of habitable rooms vary enormously in size.
| Habitable rooms | Smaller (10th) | Typical | Larger (90th) | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 19 m² | 24 m² | 30 m² | 86 |
| 2 | 34 m² | 46 m² | 57 m² | 528 |
| 3 | 51 m² | 66 m² | 84 m² | 745 |
| 4 | 67 m² | 79 m² | 99 m² | 525 |
| 5 | 78 m² | 89 m² | 114 m² | 954 |
| 6 | 93 m² | 108 m² | 140 m² | 389 |
| 7 | 122 m² | 155 m² | 212 m² | 355 |
| 8 | 141 m² | 192 m² | 260 m² | 287 |
| 9 | 171 m² | 224 m² | 300 m² | 160 |
| 10 | 207 m² | 257 m² | 354 m² | 104 |
| 11 | 253 m² | 317 m² | 465 m² | 38 |
| 12 | 288 m² | 411 m² | 697 m² | 38 |
The widest spread here is among homes with 12 habitable rooms, ranging from 288 to 697 m². Two properties advertised the same way can differ by more than half their floor area, which is why price per square metre is a more useful comparison than price alone.
