via Getty That's according to the latest MyHome Property Price Report. Property prices in Cork have risen by €35,000 in the past year. That’s according to the latest MyHome Property Price Report, which shows the median asking price for a home in Cork County now stands at €340,000. Prices were flat over the final quarter of 2025. The report shows the asking price for a three-bedroom semi-detached house in the county rose by €35,000 over the year to €350,000, with a €5,000 increase during the last quarter. Meanwhile, the asking price for a four-bed semi-detached home increased by €30,000 over the year to €425,000, rising by €7,500 over the quarter. There were 1,389 properties listed for sale in Cork at the end of Q4, a decrease of 7% compared to the previous quarter. The average time for a property to go sale agreed in Cork County now stands at almost four months. In Cork City, it is nearly three and a half months. Nationally, the report suggests house price inflation is beginning to slow. Author of the report and Bank of Ireland Chief Economist Conall MacCoille said: “This quarter’s MyHome report adds to the evidence that the pace of Irish house price inflation is starting to soften. Asking prices were flat in Q4 2025, up just 0.1% in the usually quiet winter months, with the annual rate of inflation slowing to 5.4%.However, the froth in the market is subsiding a little. The median premium over asking has fallen back from a peak of 8.6% in July, to 7.4% in October and November.” Managing Director of MyHome Joanne Geary said increased supply remains key. “While there are early signs of stabilisation, conditions remain tight, and buyers continue to compete for a limited pool of properties. Ensuring that supply grows steadily will be key to supporting a more balanced market in the coming years.”
