In cash terms the typical BA2 7 home went from £105,800 in 1995 to £591,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 157%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 24% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

Year-on-year change in the BA2 7 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 (+59.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−10.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

The register shows 18 BA2 7 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 93 sales a year before the financial crisis and 64 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.

The shape of the BA2 7 market

This is a thin market: 18 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Within BA2, this sector trades 50% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

What homes rent for around BA2 7

BA2 7 falls under Bath and North East Somerset, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,881 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,203 a month here against £2,535 for four or more bedrooms.

£1,881 a month is £22,572 a year, which against the £591,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.8%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

36% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.

The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.

Bedroom by bedroom: BA prices by size

What homes of each size actually sold for across the BA area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the BA area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
