Peterlee in County Durham has been named the most affordable seaside location, with average asking prices standing at just £120,657. window.scriptsToLoad.push({url:'https://live.primis.tech/live/liveView.php?s=118222&vp_content=plembed3a6btjknzwqh&cbuster=%%CACHEBUSTER%%&playerApiId=v118222',triggeredBy:'tcfLoaded',delay:1500,containerId:'ovp-primis',title:"Primis player",beforeLoad:()=>{window.top.addEventListener('primisPlayerInit',e=>{try{if(e.detail&&e.detail.playerApiId==="v118222"){if(window.document.getElementsByClassName('jwplayer')[0]){e.detail.float('disable')}}}catch(e){}})},}) Other low-cost coastal towns include Grimsby in Lincolnshire (£133,706), Ashington in Northumberland (£133,775) and Bootle in Merseyside (£141,680). Rightmove's findings showed that while some seaside towns are seeing house prices rise faster than the wider UK market, many coastal areas remain significantly below the national average property price of £378,304. Bootle was identified as the fastest-growing seaside market, with asking prices rising by 11% compared with last year. Despite the increase, prices in the Merseyside town remain relatively affordable.
