House prices have reached new heights in Jersey, with the average price of a two-bedroom flat now standing at £460,000 and three-bedroom homes going for £710,000.
The figures were contained in a new report by Statistics Jersey, which recorded an overall 9% increase in house prices in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same point last year.
The report said that the average cost of three-bedroom houses - once considered an average family home - had jumped to £709,000 in the latest quarter, which was £22,000 higher than the previous quarter in Q4 2020. It was the "highest mean price for this property type recorded to date.”
