Analysis carried out by Bell Financial Solutions<\/a>, a Manchester-based mortgage brokerage, highlights the postcodes that have seen the strongest rises this year, which is currently being led by Ancoats and a cluster of neighbourhoods across the north and east of the city.<\/p>\n The findings coincide with a significant rise in buyer searches for the area. Over the past three months, Google queries for \u201cnew homes for sale Manchester\u201d have risen by 53%, signalling renewed appetite as mortgage rates ease and confidence returns.<\/p>\n According to the data, M40 8, which covers parts of Miles Platting and Ancoats, has recorded the steepest rise in house prices in 2025, with values up 40.4% over the past year. Several of the other high-growth areas are just outside the city centre, revealing the ongoing pull of walkable neighbourhoods with strong regeneration.<\/p>\n M40 8 \u2013 40.4% \u2013 Miles Platting \/ Ancoats (North East)<\/p>\n M16 7 \u2013 24% \u2013 Whalley Range \/ Old Trafford (South Central)<\/p>\n M11 3 \u2013 16.3% \u2013 Clayton \/ Beswick \/ Openshaw (East)<\/p>\n M1 7 \u2013 10.8% \u2013 Ardwick (City Centre)<\/p>\n M20 1 \u2013 10.5% \u2013 Didsbury \/ Withington (South)<\/p>\n M14 5 \u2013 10.4% \u2013 Fallowfield \/ Rusholme (South Central)<\/p>\n M40 1 \u2013 9.2% \u2013 Newton Heath (North East)<\/p>\n M22 8 \u2013 8.8% \u2013 Northenden (South)<\/p>\n M19 2 \u2013 8.7% \u2013 Levenshulme (South)<\/p>\n M8 0 \u2013 8.2% \u2013 Cheetham Hill \/ Crumpsall (North)<\/p>\n The data, drawn from Housemetric\u2019s postcode-level price analysis, reveals steady, sustainable growth rather than the rapid spikes seen during the pandemic years. Although areas close to transport links, universities and major employment hubs are still performing strongly.<\/p>\n Daniel Bell, Founder and Mortgage Expert at Bell Financial Solutions, says the current pattern of growth is encouraging for both buyers and sellers:<\/p>\n \u201cRight now, Manchester\u2019s housing market is in a really interesting position. We\u2019re seeing steady growth across many of the M postcodes nearer the centre of the city, with house prices edging upwards rather than skyrocketing. And this is actually a sign of a healthier, more sustainable market.<\/p>\n \u201cFor buyers, it\u2019s a great time to take advantage of slightly calmer conditions, especially with mortgage rates easing and more choice on the market. For sellers, realistic pricing and a strong location still attract significant interest. Most importantly, demand hasn\u2019t gone away.<\/p>\n \u201cManchester remains one of the most exciting property markets in the UK, and those looking to move or invest now could benefit from getting ahead of the next growth cycle.\u201d<\/p>\n The strongest price growth is clustered around regeneration corridors – particularly in Ancoats, Clayton, Ardwick and North Manchester -where infrastructure upgrades and ongoing redevelopment remain key drivers.<\/p>\n For owner-occupiers, the rise in searches and steady price trends suggests confidence has been rebuilding through the year following a softer 2024.<\/p>\n With supply in some areas still limited and demand resilient, buyers may face more competition as 2026 approaches. And, with mortgage rates edging downwards and Manchester\u2019s fundamentals staying strong, conditions are currently favourable for both movers and long-term investors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fresh research shows that Greater Manchester\u2019s housing market has continued to strengthen through 2025, with sharp increases in both buyer interest and localised price growth.
