In cash terms the typical BA11 1 home went from £43,500 in 1995 to £300,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 217%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 21% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BA11 1 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2000 (+28.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−8.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What BA11 1 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −8.4% | −10.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.2% | −0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 61 sales completed in BA11 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 210 sales a year before the financial crisis and 141 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What homes rent for around BA11 1
BA11 1 falls under Somerset, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £990 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £674 a month here against £1,580 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Somerset
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £300,000 median purchase price, a rent of £990 a month (£11,880 a year) works out at a 4.0% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
How BA11 1 trades
The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

Moving up a bedroom in BA: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the BA area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £320,000 | £425,000 (+33%) | £650,000 (+53%) | £965,000 (+48%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
