About £347,000 for the typical home, and the range around that number is wider than the town's reputation suggests. Flats go for under £200,000. Semis sit near £400,000. Detached houses clear half a million. The median is a midpoint, and very few buyers here are buying the midpoint.
The Land Registry recorded 387 sales in Aldershot in the year to mid-May 2026, at a median price of about £347,000. Flats sold for a median of about £180,000 across 109 sales, terraces for about £342,000 across 103, semis for £390,000 across 116, and detached houses for about £524,000 across 59. The terrace and the overall median land within a few thousand pounds of each other, which makes the terrace the honest answer to "what does a house cost here". Everything else is either a compromise below it or a promotion above it.
The house price index for the area put the average at about £331,000 in May 2026, up 1.9% on a year earlier and 16% over five years. Flats went the other way, down 0.4% over the same twelve months. Neither is a boom or a crash. A flat in Aldershot has spent the year going nowhere, which is either a bargain or a warning depending on whether you are buying or selling one.
Band C is the most common council-tax band, and about 24% of homes sit in bands A or B. A band D home pays about £2,320 a year, which is the number to hold up against your current bill before you assume the move saves money on everything.
Renting costs about £1,380 a month, the typical private rent across the Rushmoor area as of April 2026, not a figure for Aldershot's own streets. It is a mean from the Office for National Statistics rent index, not a median of what is advertised, and it was up 8% on a year earlier. By size, a one-bed averages about £970 a month, a two-bed about £1,260, a three-bed about £1,520 and a four-bed or bigger about £2,170. No reliable figure exists for studios or single rooms, so any listing quoting one is setting its own terms. At those rents, the landlord's annual review letter is the one piece of post in Aldershot guaranteed to arrive on time.
Median gross household income, before tax, was about £59,000 in the financial year to March 2023, as modelled by the Office for National Statistics across the town's neighbourhoods. That is a three-year-old figure set against this year's prices. Against it, a flat is within reach of one decent salary and a terrace needs two, while a detached house is where the mortgage adviser stops smiling and starts asking about bonuses.
The median price per square metre was about £4,140, across the 80% of recent sales that could be matched to an energy certificate's floor area. The typical home behind that figure is about 83 square metres. That is a comfortable family house by modern standards and a squeeze by the standards of anyone arriving with a sofa bought for somewhere bigger.
At the 2021 Census, 17% of Aldershot homes had one bedroom, 30% had two, 40% had three and 13% had four or more. The three-bed is the town's default setting, and the four-bed is the one estate agents describe as rare with a straight face, because for once it is.
What a house costs in Aldershot is one of the town's real strengths: prices are fair for what they buy, steady rather than frothy, and within reach for anyone who does the sums honestly.
